Will a BJ70 winch bumper fit a LJ78?

[GTSSportCoupe]

I'm still learning about 70 series frame differences, so hoping for some help here. There is a BJ70 winch bumper for sale somewhat local to me, and I was wondering if it would fit my LJ78. I'm ok with doing some modifications, but am hoping it will at least bolt to the frame horns.

Here is a pic of the bumper in question:

Here is my LJ78 as it is currently:

not sure if this helps, but some info on the width/dimensions..I have no idea about bolting or anything...Can you have the seller take measurements for you and compare that way?

I suggest this "poor man's" winch. You just need 12 large friends that are willing to pull the rope.

the LD frame horns are the same width as the HD units but they sit 1" shorter in length.
the fender mounts might or might not be an issue
i could bolt my bumper from my HD 70 onto my LJ78 build but the winch wouldn't clear so i had to change out the frame horns on my applicaion.
width you will be fine, you MIGHT need to modify for length.
help?
no help?

Crushers, that is great info, thanks a lot. That is exactly what I was looking for.

I'm going to contact the seller and check out the bumper in person.
