Re: Front bumper brackets
The 67-70 brackets Are shorter due to the fact that the outer mounting holes are about dead center of where the 71-72 parking lights are in the bumper. When GM put the parking lights in the bumper in 71, they had to make the outer holes farther out toward the edge to miss the parking lights.
I have a set of 67-70 brackets if you are interested. http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...d.php?t=573006 Posted via Mobile Device |

Re: Front bumper brackets
The 71-72 outer brackets are longer then the 67-70 (both 2wd and 4wd) to clear the parking lights. Inside brackets are the same for all.

Re: Front bumper brackets
Jos I hope you don't mind me highjacking a bit. I've been told there is a difference between 71-72 2wd and 4wd, if there is can someone tell me what it is?
