Who has a pickup and fitted it with rear bumper bars
I'd like to hear from anyone who has fitted rear bumpers to a pickup. On this thread or by private message please.

Re: Who has a pickup and fitted it with rear bumper bars
Mine has the bumperettes from a car fitted. P/Us weren't sold here so this is a vehicle I brought into the country. The bumpers were already fitted but were only good for show so I redid them so that they would contribute something in the vent of someone ramming the rear end.

I also want to fit bumpers on my 28rpu, probably with a tow hitch. Would like to see details on your brackets.

I was not able to download these good pictures of a pickup with the split rear bumpers. So please follow the hyperlink to an EBay listing of a Model A PU. Doesn’t look bad at all. |

My right tail light does not have the license lens, on the left side it still has the license lens. My plate is illuminated. I found a license frame that has a light in it.

Re: Who has a pickup and fitted it with rear bumper bars
Hi Gary, my '31 CCPU had rear short bumpers on it when purchased, the PO used some 2X4s to "augment" the installation.
Here's some pictures:

Re: Who has a pickup and fitted it with rear bumper bars
If possible, I would greatly appreciate how the main bracket is attached at the front. You have the rear, but have no clue as to the front of the iron.

I don't have any pictures, but it bolts to the frame in the same place where the rear bumper supports for sedans and coupes do.

Re: Who has a pickup and fitted it with rear bumper bars
Thankyou Katy and other respondence. When I get home I'll compare your replys to what I've got. Tell you a story about my bumperettes. When Patsy and I travel outback we camp on roadside or by creeks and billabongs. One evening we camped where some low class citizen had dumped a load of trash which included Model-A bumperetes which I took home. A Melbourne fellow needed them and I didn’t so I gave them to him. When I bought what call my Model A, "woofa express" I decided to fit bumperettes. So I imported a set from America. Then I saw a set of longitudinal brackets them to so another purchase and bumperttes came too. That makes 3 sets and still haven't got a set attached to Woofa Express. But will have soon.

I'll see what I can do about getting pictures of the front attachment.
