Rear Bumpers on a 31 CCPU

[MrBruce]

I thought it would be easy to put some rear bumpers on my 31 CCPU so I bought everything (bought sedan bumper mounting irons) thinking I could just adjust them to work on the pickup but am finding out there not even close. I've seen dozens of pickups with rear bumpers and someone must have a suggestion or two or even a drawing of what they did? Thought before I cut and make it work I'd see if anyone has what has worked for them?

Sedan delivery has longer arms but unobtainable…
Only thing I know of is to extend bars

Mine ('31 Budd Cab) has interference with dropping Tail-Gate. Can't drop it 180 from close. For me, gives it a finished-look tho

I haven't done it myself, but a friend bolted up a set of sedan rear bumper brackets on his 29 pickup and it was pretty easy. No cutting or welding.

“bolted up a set of sedan rear bumper brackets”

Where did they extend in relation to the gate? Just wondering

mr peters asked me to chime in on this discussion as he mentioned me earlier. The bolt on bumpers / brackets extend out far enough to be usable as a method of pushing this 29 ccpu on the rear bumpers by another vehicle and also offering some protection from be rear ended.

Civilians think the truck always had rear bumpers.

Ps. Don’t tell a soul but these rear bumpers are 1930 and don’t quite match the front 29 full bumper. Nobody seems to notice this as well……

Years ago when my pickup belonged to my dad, he installed a front bumper on the rear of his pickup. He installed this brace to make it work.

When I bought my rear bumper brackets they had already been lengthened by about 6". They position the bumper so that the tail gate will swing the full 180 degrees.
