Dose anyone have pics of the front bumper frame where it meets the bumper cushion.
There is a bracket that is about 5" long, angled, and gose from the bumper frame to the lower bolt that holds on the bumper cushion.
I cant get them to line up.
Dose the frame go between the coushins or under.
Any help is appriciated.
Ok I have pics now.
The first pic, the corner of the bumper touches the cushion.
The second pic, the corner of the pumper is lower then the cushion.
The third pic shows the bumper about 1" below the headlights.
The fourth shows the bumper about 3" below the head lights.

I'm guessing this is for a 1973?

Life isn't Father Knows Best anymore, it's a kick in the face on a saturday night with a steel toed grip kodiak work boot and a trip to the hospital all bloodied and bashed.....for reconstructive surgery. But, what doesn't kill us, makes us stronger, right?

Bolts directly to bumper, not to reinforcement. Shares one of the holes ( outer one of the pair available ) where the outer grilles bracket attachs on to bumper on bottom, with 7/16" bolt/nuts assembly. At least on my car is nut and bolt, not fastener.

Note... you won't be able to attach bumper OVER reinforcement already mounted on car. Bumper and reinforcement with all brackets needs to be bolted on to car all togeter

Hey Man
You guys are great.
That was my problem, I was trying to bolt it to the reinforcing frame instead of the bumper.
Thanks for your time.
