Craig's List. about 6-7 years ago I got this this one for my '79. Was designed for a GMT-400, but I cut the ends off. $150 with brackets.

I sold a Warn bumper just like that one about a week ago. Well, traded it (with boot $$$) to a guy for a 1989 Suburban bumper with the wide impact strips with the chrome at the top and a set of the big chrome bumper guards.

You could have had mine for cheap if you had gotten here last week, OP. I'm sure you'll find a nice one eventually. Good luck.

I just welded up an Embark series rear from MOVE but do not like the looks of any of their bumpers for the front. I am leaning toward this:

Buck Stop is another option. They have several varieties. They also bought out Reunel a few year ago and carry their items. Photo 1 & 2 are Buck Stop. #3 is Reunel, Sorry it's F*rd, I couldn't find a good Chevy photo.

Our Highway Patrol used to exclusively use Reunel Bumpers until the buy out.

Not as many companies making bumpers for square trucks now. I prefer a bumper like the Iron Cross, but here is a bumper more like the Warn unit pictured. Half the price of the Iron Cross too:

Oh, I see this is the bumper @AKguy already posted.

I would love to find one of those Warn bumpers for my '80 Blazer.
I was lucky enough to find the winch mount in my profile pic, last summer. I had no idea that parts were going to by this difficult to find. I sold my original winch mount and winch as I was going to go in a different direction with the Blazer and they were just sitting around the garage.

I went with buckstop, a little pricey but the bumper is great.

Here is my first attempt at hiding a 12,000 LB winch UNDER the bumper and believe me, it wasn't easy doing it by myself. I "Attempted" to re-create the front bumper of the Dante's Peak Suburban and this was as close as I could get it without going broke and at the same time, keeping the original front bumper intact. I had to use cardboard to make templates for the two outer supports. One thing is for sure, if if decides to break, I don't think the 3/8's steel plate it is mounted on will be the first to go!
