Anyone use the front bumper on the rear of their 73-77 Dodge trucks?

I have heard of people trying but never have seen one done. With the front being curved and taller I think it would be a mess. And now the rears are available as reproductions for I think less than 200.00

Yeah, new bumpers are available, I just bought a rear from LMC truck, $189. The bummer is they don’t have rear bumper brackets. Needle in a haystack. Will probably have to fab my own.

Yeah, I have an unpainted LMC bumper. I was sorta thinking out loud while looking at my fron bumper.

Not a step side but here's what a front bumper looks like on a 78 short wide bed... straightened a small amount by laying it on the floor and putting some downward force right in the middle...carefully...
