Pre-Runner Style Bumper 1979-1991

A: The 1978 and earlier years didn't have frame horns protruding from the front frame crossmember. This bumper style uses those frame horns as part of the mounting system. If you can weld on frame horns (original or make your own), this bumper will fit earlier years. Note that the width and shape of the bumper is the same for all years, the only difference is you may have to do custom work for the mounting attachments. Answer provided by:  Ryan (1/25/2016)

A: Per the note on the product page description:
If you have an earlier model truck from 1974-1978, you can install frame horns and then install this bumper (recommended to receive bumper first, then mock up and install frame horns). Answer provided by:  Ryan (1/2/2017)
