Default 130b deluxe delivery rear bumper irons

A friend of mine has a 130b sedan delivery, 1930. His question is what rear bumper mounts are correct for this vehicle; the irons that mount to the frame and go over the rear crossmember.
Would sedan irons fit or does he need to modify some irons to fit his delivery? There is a lot of body hanging out past the rear crossmember on this model.
Any tips or advice gladly accepted, and thank you,
Doug

I did one along time ago and it is no longer in town.
The rear bumper arms are much longer than sedan even fordior etc
As a matter of fact the very back cross sill sits on a back pair of stands. Sort of acts as a support for the rear of the body (albeit a poor support imho)
One of a kind as I've seen. May need to extend something to make it work
The stands are very tall

The Bumper Brackets on a 130-B were only used on 130-B's . They are extremely hard to find. They are about 16-18" longer than the standard ones that are on all of the rest of Model A's that use bumpers. You can weld an exstintion piece to get the proper length but I don't think you can make it perfect . plus I don't know how save the welding would be . Here shows how far they should extend out the rear of the truck.
