Front bumper brackets 2wd vs 4wd - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Hope everyone had a good Thanksgiving!

Does anyone know if the front bumper brackets are different, between a 63-66 C (2wd) vs K (4wd) model? Or any pictures I could use for comparison? Thanks.

In case anyone is wondering, the reason I ask this is because the assembly manual calls out different part numbers between the C and K models. I haven't been able to verify that there are any physical differences though...

Thanks in advance if anyone can provide further info.

Les, thank you very much, I really appreciate it! Pictures would be great. I haven't been able to find any repop 4wd brackets, although some vendors do list the same bracket for C/K models. Whoever mounted the bumper on my K Suburban really twisted the brackets to get them on, so I'm hoping I can find K brackets or at least figure out how to modify the C brackets. Thanks again!

Dave,
Photos showing both K10 and C10 front bumper braces.
The K10 front bumper braces are the ones not cleaned. The C10s are cleaned and coated.
