Re: Parts, Tucking bumpers
ok, here's an idea on tucking the front bumper when you find a bumper and brackets.
I took the brackets and moved them back so the middle hole on the bracket bolted into the rear hole on the frame, then trimmed the excess off the end of the bracket. Then I had a spring shop drill a hole in the bracket that matches the front hole in the frame. The bracket is made of spring steel so regular drill bits wont cut it.
This puts the center of the bumper about 1/2" from the center of the grill.
Hope that helped.
