single cab long bed bob

well it looks like i might be getting rid of my 85 4runner for a 88 p/u, its got a 4inch lift, lockrite locker and a new motor and tires.the body has 180k on it. my only problem is the long bed. i like the idea of the extra 9 inches between the wheels from the shortbeds. and i think bobbed beds look kinda cool im just wondering about the frame. when you cut it, what are my options for a bumper ?

Move the existing bumper and mounts back...
Or I would make or have someone make something for you.

I am kind of in the same boat. I just started the bob on my Trekker. Want to keep my Marlin bumper but am trying to figure out how to get the mounts around the rear shackles....
