Kip, and others. Thanks so far, but still looks like my 1 Ton bumpers are much heavier, so I guess I am now trying to find a front one. My '46 1 Ton panel bumpers are both about 0.242" (+/- .002") thick. That's .24, almost exactly 1/4" thick; really heavy. The 72" (around the curve) and 5" (maybe 4 3/4") are about right, but it's that heavy 1/4" thickness that you notice. And they are hard, probably a sort of spring steel. So now we know, and now I'm searching.
Hey MikeE:Please measure yours and see how thick, 0.14 or 0.24", and let us know. Thanks.
Hey Fumblin: Do you mean, on the 1.5 and 2 tons, they are maybe this heavy but still the simple curved cross section, or were those the special taller, bulkier and more compound curved shape as in many big trucks, and probably never chromed. These chrome bumpers on my 1 Ton look just like the simple ones on the 1/2 Tons, only heavier.
