Looks like someone ran into a highway guard rail.
Let's see your front bumpers!

That's from a half-ton '49-'56 Studebaker pick-up (narrowed to fit). The 3/4 ton and 1 ton trucks had a far more massive bumper, probably 3" to 4" taller. Same style, though. Now that is a guard rail!Looks like someone ran into a highway guard rail.

Also doing a bit of posing...thinking of entering this in the ride of the month but it might not be fair.

What'll be interesting is to see how many different "brands" turn up for this exact same bumper...
OP
I've talked about this before in another thread. They're all made in China from the same manufacturer. They are just off-loaded here in the U.S. and branded as whatever sellers want to call them.
For instance, Extreme Terrain likes to call their's "Barricade H.D.", while the ones on Amazon are usually EAG, and then there's others as well.
Needless to say, they come from the same place. The same thing happens with the majority of the cheap Chinese LED headlights as well.

Yet another example. EAG, built in winch plate. Superwinch TS9500 Synthetic
Had I not just dumped all this money into my suspension I would have bought that Mopar Rock crawler front bumper that was lingering on the ATL Craigslist for a while. One day this one could get replaced with one of those or one of JCRs bumpers.

I had a 56 Studebaker Transtar that I sold last year. I thought the one in the picture looked awfully familiar.

No measurements taken, I just lined up with the bump cans and cut.

Couple buddies of mine run trailhead customs ones. Local guy up here, he will do just about anything you ask though.
