I was thinking at buying a MC bumper for my 83 long bed. The only thing is there always sold out, will any of the shortbed bumpers work? Or getting the safari snokerl for my truck I already have the redline snokel for my carb. or some other part under 250,

 

is it locked up? i would lock the rear diff asap it does wonders (just locked mine up)

 

x2 on the lockers..


I'm locked front and rear.. Spool for the rear was only 180!

My .02

 

The difference between the longbed and shortbed rear bumpers is the length of the mounting brackets.

 

I still dont have gears for it , well I have one set of 5.29's but still need to buy the rear and then get an aussie for the back. And if they ever get a place to buy a elocker kit for the front ill got that direction. would you think that buying the shortbed from marlin would be fine would just have to weld on some long brackets or make my own to fit?
