I bought an off hand SmittyBilt bumper recently but it did not come with the hardware to mount it, no pun intended. I have seen Westin Bumper Mounting kits, can they be substituted? I have not seen Smittybilt hardware sold seperately anywhere. Thanks in advance for your <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/cheers.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/cheers.gif" alt="" /> thoughts. [email]S@&%ers[/email] full, gotta go........

I don't recall if the factory bolts were used or not. '94 extra-cab 3.0 extra slo (auto tranny) original owner. E/B o/s valve heads and no more crossover. More mods to come.
