I had an 86 Isuzu P'up which should be the same as the 81 Luv and it was 3 pieces. I think it will bolt up. I don't know how well it will conform to the front contours of a 77 Luv though. :?

Would have to agree with Gordo, the newer Luvs have more of a square front end. Maybe if it mounts out from the grille a bit it wouldnt be as noticable.

Ive measured out an early s-10 bumper and found it was just wide enough to fit around the fenders but forgot to measure the bolt locations. Damn. Thanks for reminding me of how forgetful I am.

Ok I am still confused. I got an 1981 LUV. I took the front bumper off two months ago and put it back on about two weeks ago. I took the whole thing off and it was all one peice. Just one big hunk of chrome that goes from the right front fender the the left front fender. Its bolted on by 4 bolts on the front and theres one bolt on each side that holds the sides of the bumper up. I just looked at it today and its all one peice. Maybe they made two kinds of bumpers that year??? :?
