core support bushings

I'm getting some conflicting info so I'm going to ask...

I have a 69 frame and 68 sheetmetal. What core support bushing do I need?

Re: core support bushings

When I put a '67 front clip on my '69 frame I used the core support bushings for the '67.

Re: core support bushings

I would say use the 69, if I remember correctly the holes in the frame are smaller for the 7 and 8, from 69 to 72 they had larger holes

Re: core support bushings

You use the 69-72 bushings. I just did this with my 72 and 68 front clip.

Re: core support bushings

Use the bushings based on the year of the frame, not the sheetmetal.
