Default Rear bumper relocate

Wondering if anyone has remounted the rear bumper after a 1 " body lift to make up for the new gap

with just a 1" BL, the gap really isn't so bad and i personally thought it looked fine. however, i'd be willing to bet you could make some adapter brackets pretty easily.

This thread is old I know but digging up the how-to for someone else anyway, so will post here shortly. Really a very easy mod to do... remove side brackets, drill 2 holes in frame rail (higher up) and remount...

Here's my rear after body lift and relocate bumper. Less gap than stock!
