Sport Bumper brackets

I am about to order my sport bumper and I was wondering if all of the bumpers used the same brackets or if i had to order ones for the sport bumper specifically. Also for those that have them where did you order it from and were you happy with the quality.
thanks,
Travis

Re: Sport Bumper brackets

Sport brackets are different than the step brackets.

I got all my sets from the junkyard...they are out there, just have to look.

They come up on here from time to time as well.

Re: Sport Bumper brackets

Some aftermarket companies sell them new. I got mine for my 74 from Chevy Duty (Classic Industries?). They were NOS GM parts in GM packaging.

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.

Re: Sport Bumper brackets

I got mine from Classic Parts America. Both the brackets and the bumper were NOS, they all still had the gm stickers on them. And as for quality and fit... I couldn't be any happier/satisfied.

Before and After.
