Is there bracket I am missing? I tried to attach my new bumper to my old frame but it didn't seem to match up directly, any pointers or advice on what I have to do to make this fit, attached is the only 3 bumper pieces I have.

Not sure what brackets you are referring to but we had to fabricate some pieces to make my bumper fit my HJ75. There are sizable bolts running through the spacers that anchor the bumper to the frame.
Hope that helps......

Thanks for your help:)) I'm still lost lol. Yes I'm not a mechanic lol. So maybe this will help. Here is a pic of my frame. I won't be having my hitch put on any time soon, so I need to bolt it to this frame somehow?

Much appreciated and I hope my trucks comes out as clean as yours:) I kinda copied and was going for your looks. I finally primed my cab last night

FYI this guy popped out when i was trying to install my bumper which I obviously failed lol but it's the Largest black bear I have ever seen. I see hundreds each yr on a daily basis since I was a child. He was incredible and jumped inside my new toyota box for some tim hortins wrappers:(). He was like a over weight 20 000 pound out of breath gorilla when he moved! At first I thought he could be a grizzly which is not as common in this area. I hope to see him again this week:)

I can crawl under and take more photos if that helps. Just ket me know. :)
 
As it turns out we didn't have a issue installing the factory rear bumper. The issue we had was re-installing the rear receiver hitch which would no longer fit with the bumper in place. We had to drop the receiver down approximately 1-1/2" and fabricate spacers to re anchor it. Again I will be glad to supply photos if it helps.
 
In picture # 7 you will see 2 black brackets that the screws would go through. My rear frame is flat and same height all the way across, but the brackets I have are smaller on the 1 side?
 
Would photos from a different angle solve the mystery?
 
Maybe it would help, sorry for my confusion. When you look at the rear end of your frame does it look the same as mine? Does your rear bumper have different size brackets?
 
My truck is in the garage and there is not adequate light to get a good look or take descent photos so I will try in the morning.
 
Although I can only see the center portion ( the rest is covered up by the bumper ) your rear frame looks identical to mine. ( well yours is more shiny :) )

The bracket that attaches the center section to the outer wings......
