should bolt onto the end of the frame 2 bolts on either side and the bracket goes back to just in frt of the steering box and the same distance back on passenger side.
it is possible being a 4 x 4 that the ends of the frame were cut off to perhaps mount a winch bumper or whatever. I do have a set of frt frame ends
the frt bumper mounts as any other c10-c20 bumper mounts irregardless of what suspension it does have

We have several '60-'66 Chevy/GMC 4x4 trucks. The rear bumper brackets mount on the vertical web of the rear frame rails. Hit me with an e-mail and I will send some photos of the install.

Heidel, which brackets do you think you have with your bumper? I presume step side?
Tony is the 4x4 bumper same as C-series?
Reason I ask - I am getting closer to needed rear bumper and brackets for 62 fleet.

HB, the fleetside sport bumper on the 4x4 (K10 & K20) trucks are the same, as those found on the 2wd (C10 & C20). The same is true for the stepside sport bumper on the 4x4 (K10 & K20) trucks & the 2wd (C10 & C20). This applied to both Chevrolet & GMC.
