Default 35 bumpers up or down

Re Installing the front bumper and adding a rear bumper to my 35 Pickup. Not sure I have them in the correct position as to top and bottom. Do the ends turn down or up ?. Thanks

The big "dip" in the middle of the bumper goes down. That should get the ends positioned just right. DD

Yes, my bumpers are straight. The bolt pattern lines up in either position.

The green bible shows for commercial the wider end on the down side. For 35-36 truck it show a totally different bumper.
