They lied.

Front bumpers won't fit, rears are the same.

I'm interested! Where is the bumper currently located.

I"m in SW Colorado.

They would know better than I

Bumper is located in western Wisconsin. I can wrap it up and strap it to a pallet and ship it if needed.

I think it would be very helpful if you would post some good photos of your bumper. Thanks!

1992-1996 bumpers are different than 1996 up FWIW. one could be made to fit the other, but its not a bolt on deal.

Reunel rear bumpers are the only ones I've seen that not only bolt to the frame horns but also to the OEM trailer hitch holes on the bottom of the frame. If Reunel said the rear won't fit I'm sure they mean because those holes won't line up. It would be very simple for a perspective buyer to mount the rear bumper on the frame horns and then drill holes where the hitch holes don't line up. 15 minute job with good drill bits.

The frame horn mounts for all Ford vans from 92 up are the same, front and rear. The hitch holes did move around on different years but it's simple to modify them by drilling holes in the needed spots in the bottom of your frame.

Underneath pics of your bumper would help. Do you have a CL ad? You could just post the link or post pics here easily through Tapatalk on a smartphone.

They are not. early vans had a different bolt pattern on the rear flat bumper plate. at a quick glance they look the same, but if you tried to mount a new bumper to an older van, youd find the holes wont line up.

front bumpers are the same.
