Front bumper removal

My 81's front bumper got all smashed to hell, long story, and I'm in the process of replacing it. Problem is, everything is so creased and smashed together I can't tell where the mounts are. Anyone have pics as to where the bumper bolts are so I can start cutting? I havent been able to find any photos or descriptions of how it mounts and i'd rather not go crazy cutting the whole front of the truck up. Sorry for the stupid question.

Sorry I don't have software to draw nice little arrows. I think you can see the four bolts that attach the bumper to the frame. Two on the frame crossmember and two on the frame rails just inside the body mounting points.

not sure if this helps you at all:



I think it is a bolt on top of the frame and one on the front for each bracket, and a couple of each side for the little front valance


I just remember having some fun with the sawzall taking it off

edit: aren't you one of the members that had a Trekker for sale awhile ago? Curious if you sold it or still working on it...Hoping you still have it

many thanks for your helpful posts. yes, I still have the Trekker - you just helped me out with it kicking myself for ever wanting to sell it but i could have used the money at the time; i will never ever part with my Toyota Trekker!!
