I bent the driver's side rear bumper bracket on my '93 F-150. Can anybody help me out? One of the guys at the junk yard said the bracket covers '75 to '96. At the U-Pull-its, they're all welded on.

Hello,
This may be a long shot, but I am really not certain what this is and especially not clue how to specifically identify it so I am hoping some of you folks might be able to help.
I found this while converting my shed to an office. It was tucked away in the loft of my shed for who knows how long. I certainly didn't put it up there so had to be the previous homeowner.
The only numbering I can see is the "2450" Sticker shown in the picture below. I don't see anything that is etched on anywhere.
For size reference the plywood in the picture is 4ft x 13.5in
Happy to provide more pictures if needed. Or anything else required to help identify.
Thanks!
