Default starting to build a custom bumper

Hey so I I am planning on building a custom bumper/grilluard for my pickup and was wondering if any of you had the dimensions of the front end of a 1998.5 dodge 2500. I am planning in designing it in solidworks and need the dimensions. Thanks.

I would highly recommend removing your bumper and geting the readings instead of trusting some one couple of bolts and you got what you need its coming off anyway and also when i built mine i got my mounting backets done exactly the same the mount a piece of schedule 40 3inch pipe for my starting point then went crazy from there

If you Google it. My buddy found every measurement to build a bumper like a road armor bumper front and rear. I have axecess to a burn table so we just have to poke the numbers in and cut the prices then fit and weld. I can prolly post the dimensions if you want.
