Hi All,
I am about to embark on the bumper backdate process and have read some of the threads but have a couple of questions: 1. Do I need to purchase the dog bones as part of the required hardware or are they already on the late model '75 bumpers? I see 914 Rubber sell a set of 4 of these so wanted to know if I need them? 2. I have noted that some threads have said that some brackets are required to secure the middle of the rubber bumper tops that are not present on the body of the later model 914s. Is there a reproduction part available or if not what have people used instead? Cheers Craig |
