67-68 front clip on a 72 truck
When switching over to a 67-68 front clip on a 72 truck what year bumper do you use? do you also use the 72 bumper brackets?
I am wanting to switch over the clip on my truck as a fender on my new truck is already dinged up pretty good and the grill is cracked to heck . |

Re: 67-68 front clip on a 72 truck
67-70 Chevy bumper or 67/68 GMC bumper with 67-70 2wd outer bumper brackets. Inner brackets are the same regardless

Re: 67-68 front clip on a 72 truck
Those trucks have 71/72 bumpers on them. those bumper will require the 71/72 2wd outer bumper brackets. 67-70 do not have turn signals in them

Yes, 67-70 Chevy AND 67/68 GMC bumpers and brackets are identical.
