67 stepside rear bumper help please

[brian26]

I am befuddled as to how I need to get my rear bumper mounted onto the stepside.
I have the rear brackets, yet I'll need to drill the holes. And mount the gravel guards. This truck HAD the 'farmers- aftermarket- tank heavy' bumper.

For some reason, I find myself trying to make this complicated. Anybody got any detailed pics of how it should look underneath and from behind? Really need to know where to exactly drill the holes.


Thank you

First off were do you need to drill holes at? Nobody repos stepside gravel guards so if you have fleetside one they would have to be cut down to work. Give me more details and I will try to help you. Thanks Tim

I figured from seeing the pics here, and yewtube, I was close already. Looks like I'll be drilling 2 holes per side.

I have the stepside guards, and Blazer guards too. Blazers mount on top.

Looks like the stepside guards mount underneath the bumper brackets----is that the case?

[brian26]

yes, it's a factory bumper


latest drama is that I cracked the chrome around the bolt holes drawing it tight. Would nail gloss help me seal it? Or am I screwed?

Step side gravel guards bount on top of the bumper brackets between the bumper and rear cross sill and should already have the holes in them?????
