1967-68 front bumper guards.

I'm trying to locate the correct location to install the bumper guards. Does anyone have the factory location measurements or pictures of trucks with them installed. Any help is appreciated. Thanks

John

Re: 1967-68 front bumper guards.

I have seen quite a few in both locations. Centered under the turn signals, and over the bumper bolts. I believe either way is acceptable.

Re: 1967-68 front bumper guards.

The pictures are the factory place for those. But if you put them on a 69-72 the turn signal light is in the way. So they get put where the 69-72 bumper guard is suppost to go. Over the center bumper bolt holes.

Re: 1967-68 front bumper guards.

John, here are the ones on my 68, I used the instructions that came with the NOS set when I put them on. They are 9" out from the inside set of bumper bolts and 8.25" inward of the outside bumper brace bolts..these measurements are from center of bolt to center of guard. Hope this helps
