Maybe a parts vault thing, but I can't find part #s for these. These are for pre-75 bumpers. I thought I could "modify" a rear bracket and put it on the front bumper. I decided that I did not want to go to the trouble....
So here are the 2 side by side. Bruce sold me the Front one ( top ).... Nice clean up on his part. I got the rear one from a junk yard, hit it with a wire brush, some marine clean and metal ready, then rust o leum.... Who is gonna see it anyway? The biggest problem is that the mounting hole centers are not the same. The front one is about 1/4" wider. Front one cross bar is higher and is "lifted" to take into consideration the curve in the bumper and help your fancy front plate point vertical. |
