Best Rear Bumper for 72 Short Step? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Z10 · 03-13-2016, 01:48 PM

I'm think it's time to remove my rear roll pan and add a chrome rear bumper to my 72 short step. I need some opinions on which vendor has the best quality and fitment. I'm looking at Brothers, which has a pretty decent sale going on right now, but thought it best to check with those who've gone before me.

Thanks in advance.

I've use Classic Parts of America in Kansas City, MO.
But I go there so I dont have to pay shipping.
You need to find one local or with free shipping.

I actually have a new in the box stepside bumper,... but shipping would be crazy.
www.classicparts.com is also a good source for repop bumper brackets.

Actually $28 dollars shipping charge isnt too bad.

I know it would be $100+ to ship mine to you,...

Thanks Keith. I'm also going to need all brackets, hardware, bolts etc.

I think I'm narrowing this down to Brothers or Ecklers. Any comments?

Have you looked at the Venders page? could give some more options.
