Warn winch bumper

[Twiztedmods]

I picked up a Warn bumper for $80.00! Now i'm in the process of sand blasting it and then I will coat the bumper with a spray on bed liner.

Very nice score! I really dig those old bumpers. They are getting hard to find too! Looks like you found a nice one. I picked up a WARN yesterday on CL for $70 as well. Sure, there are a lot stronger bumpers on the market these days but I don’t see spending $700 to $XXXX’s to get one. These old school bumpers don’t weigh a ton either. I’ve been collecting old school period correct front bumpers like the Warn for a year now until I found one that is exceptionally clean to use on the K10 and picked up my third yesterday. The downside to the latest score is it is chrome. Plan to do the same as you and blast it then go with bumper coating or satin black. Mosesburb found me two others in Phoenix last year that are pretty decent. Now I just have to figure out which of these three I want to use on which truck.

This is the one I picked up yesterday. Very clean but it is chrome . Probably use this one on the K10

This one will probably go on the Polar Bear burb as it already is drilled for the 81-91 frame horn design. Not sure what brand this one is but I know it is not a Warn.

This one is a multi-piece Warn that is in pretty bad shape. Might use it on the 1991 K5 I recently bought

I love these old bumpers I run one on my Sub with an 8274 in it.

Great score Larry, I'd love to have that chrome one piece Warn.

Can anyone give me a picture of the mounting brackets from the back side of the Warn bumper? The guy I bought the bumper from gave me stock brackets to mount the outside of the bumper, are these the right brackets? Or does Warn have their own set of brackets?

I am pretty sure Warn supplied their own brackets. None of mine have brackets either. Hopefully, LIVEanimals can snap some pictures for us.

The WARN bumper is going to look great on your rig. I like the looks of those better than the 1 piece. Oh, come to find out the one piece bumper I just bough is not a Warn after all. I found a picture of it in an old 1984 FOUR WHEELER I was thumbing through last night. It looks more like a Reflexion Industries bumper. You got the real deal Warn

My bumper didn't have brackets either. I made some out of 3" angle iron

I guess I will be doing the same thing. Thanks for the help guys!

Here are some pictures of my bumper all cleaned up. I think it turned out good.

So awesome!

Looks good

That bumper looks great now for a period correct 8274 to stuff in there. You also have a great looking K5.
