Rear Sport Bumper Question

1 Attachment(s)

This is an aftermarket Sport Bumper. What are these 2 holes at the lower edge for? There's one on each side. Thanks...……..

Probably the holes the chrome plating company uses to dip it. I believe factory ones, front and rear, have those holes as well.

I have the sport bumper on my 68 along with the gravel shields. The holes are not used for the gravel shields.

Nothing bolts to the holes in question...There are only 4 bolts that attach the sport bumper to the four brackets, two on each frame rail. The gravel guards do bolt to the brackets.

Hard to really see it here on my phone but the hole on the bottom looks like it might have been for the Jack.
