The bumpers that I have build have the tubing running parallel to the
frame of the vehicle.  I use some thick L bracket to go between the
tube and the frame and then weld on another  strip to make the L look
more like an T - on the frame there are holes and I make the holes in the
T section meet up with the holes in the frame - I also just drill new
holes in the frame so that I can get 8 M8 bolts on each frame.
