67-72 GMC front bumpers the same?

Im pretty sure when I bought a new front bumper for my 68 GMC I asked for a 68. And I was also pretty sure they were all the same. Am I wrong? because man this bumper is not liking his new home. Fighting me all the way, the holes just aren't quite there, I'm having to do some serious tweaking. I think Ive put in at least three new aftermarket bumpers on 71/72 Chevs and never had a problem.

And as an aside I can see why doing a frame off down to the last nut and bolt is a good idea if you have the time and inclination.

Strip it down clean and blast everything, put it together (all the nice clean parts) to make sure everything fits and aligns close to perfectly. Blow it all apart for paint and put it all back together. More time but the frustration factor slides in to the happy zone =)

Can you guess Im getting very messy doing this haha.
