Lance says you have the right truck . You have a 350 DRW truck, with mods . Air bags that make it level , right ?
I don't think the trucks going to notice it. PLus, I don't think the weight of the bumper is the problem.
I would think by the time you subtract the relatively light weight of a bumper then add back on another mod would (weight wise) not be worth it to you and not worth it to a dually truck.
Are the rear springs in good shape for 1988 ? How about talking to a spring shop to have them re-arched or see what your other spring options are , I think doing that would be a better way to approach things . ( Maybe add an extra leaf )
If that works out, you could still add the aluminum mod to make what you want back there.
