Anybody have pics of how the brackets mount? I have the brackets and bumper but the previous owner had a roll pan instead. Looking to get the bumper back on there.
thx

I think since I had mine on and off so many times I think I can help you.The top of the bumper brackets have the holes closest to the body and the bottom is a little further out. I think if you just try them on the bumper first they will tell you which is which. Just lay the bumper on some towels and put the brackets in and stick the bolts in and see if the body sides line up flat with each other That is the right way they go on But when the thing is mounted to the body you can't see but about a half to three quarters of an inch of bracket. It is not hard just put the top chrome bolts in first and almost tighten them from the bottom with a long extension,the square shoulder will hold them from turning then put the bottom bolts in and tighten them all up. There is really no adjustment to do except from side to side a little bit.

I think the brackets have a "L" and "R" on them for left and right side if I remember correctly also.
