I have a nice pair but cant get to them til the patio stuff is out of the shed in a couple weeks. :(

Used to be able to crawl my way to the back but my cab was stored this year so there is no room in the inn to get to anything.

I’m not in a hurry. If you dig them out, let me know.

I just ordered a set from Brothers Truck/Holley. I am cautiously optimistic. I like the smooth, clean look of my plain chrome bumper but I also think they make a 4wd look a little more rugged. I was on the fence and made the mistake of asking my son what he thought. I showed him some pics and..."Add to Cart".

Hadn't seen any updates on available set here in a minute so..... Scored a good looking set out of Oregon off flea bay last night for $170 shipped. Hopefully the pics aren't deceiving.

Worth mentioning, I feel like in the past, finding new rubber inserts was a challenge. However they are readily available from multiple retailers now.
$50-60 a pair.

Plans were to paint the backside (all light surface) with POR15 and clean them up a bit. One stud was replaced. Good driver quality. Were on a burb's bumper that was housed in a warehouse (and forgotten) under a mechanic's lien for almost 30yrs. lol
This is the original ad pic with them mounted:

They look good ! and remember, there is a Left and Right side. I sometimes see trucks with them mounted wrong.

There is?
Oh on the 80s ones, yeah i bet there is, because the bumper is pointed. The 70s ones they aren't, so it doesnt matter.
Ive only ever laid hands on 70s bumper tusks.
