Need measurement or pic of 73/74 PTO winch bumper

[amaurer]

The bumper on my 73 has been tweaked ever since Charla struck and killed a snowman. The bumper sits with the passenger side higher than the drivers side - I think the frame extension for the PTO is bent a bit but its damn hard to see exactly where the problem is.

Normally I'd just bend it to match the other side, but the "good" side seems low to my eye - I can't be sure what the proper position is anymore.

Can someone measure the angle between the "porch" step on the bumper and the veritcal line of the grill/bib?

Alternatively, can someone post a picture of the bumper's position with respect to the grill, taken directly from the side of the truck?

Thanks!

This is unacceptable. I demand that Mud fix my problems immediately! Its been 15 days!! 15!!! Ridiculous.

Ok, maybe this will make it easier. Which side shown below as the "proper" angle to it:

Ya know, looking at the pics it seems a lot more obvious which side is tweaked than when I'm looking at the truck. Doh.

Where's the skookum winch cover? You don't want the winch to get all rusty!!

Mine looks like this - doesn't have the big step the whole width.
