Hey everyone got a quick question for ya.

I was really into getting this bumper for my truck... then i read on and it says 73-80 only.... mine is an 86. Is that really the case? or will it fit on my 86? What changed from 80-81 bumperwise? Any pics of trucks with this on it?? Thanks guys.

The bumpers, brackets, and front frame profile are different from the 73-80 and the 81-87. The 81-87 bumpers are flatter than the earlier ones. The 81-82 are like the 83-87 except they have bumper mounted turnsignals.

whoa winter 04? as in jan 04 im guessing

I definately have been lusting for those bumpers since LMC started listing them. And i already got new fog lights on my current bumper so all i gots to do is plug up the lights.
And of course get the money to buy the bumper.

Someone makes that bumper for 83-87's. I just can't find it right now...

Hey N2, If you find that, please post a link or a name of a company on here if you dont mind. Thanks.

Hey guys that is the bumper that I have plans on getting for my 1987 Chevy 1/2 ton. I noticed the same thing that LMC list it only for 73-80 model trucks. However there is a company called JBM Sport Truck Accessories in Orange, CA. They list the bumper in their ad which is in Truckin' magazine. They list it for 83-87 with fog lights in chrome for $299.00 or paintable with fog lights for $199.00. I will definitely be ordering one. Their website is www.sporttrucking.com. I did not find it on the website but it shows the picture & everything in the magazine ad. They are listed as JBM Sport Truck Accessories in the index of the Truckin' magazine. Their add is usually about 4 - 6 pages. Let me know if you find it.

Why not just get an 81-82 bumper and put fogs in place of the turn indicators?

That's what I thought about doing.

Im in the process of doing that on my 84 bumper. I am painting it anyway so it doesnt really matter that I buggered up the chrome. Ill get some pics of it one of these days...corn

8t5Silverado · 09-10-2004, 01:43 PM

Cool, post some pics when you're done Corn. BTW, the shocks are on their way.
