Hi Andrew,
For years I thought that they only fitted curved bumpers, then as I got more involved in the research I kept hearing about angular bumpers. I checked my photographs and I'm confident that both were fitted. Its hard to get the right angles, and most photographs look like one version or the other, but its not always 100% clear. However the attached clearly shows a curved bumper and an angular bumper fitted to LRDG 1533x2 trucks. Both seem common and as its hard to distinguish which type it is in each photo its hard to say which one was most frequently fitted.
