'70 Front bumper outer brackets
Anybody got pictures of the front outer bumper brackets for a '70? My truck had a '71/2 front end on it when I bought it, I've since replaced the grille, but I need to get a bumper on it. I know that there are differences between '69/70 and '71/2 outer brackets (maybe inner as well?), but I THINK that the ones that were on my truck when I took the '71/2 bumper off ARE '69/70 brackets. I don't want to buy different brackets if i can save $.
Any help would be appreciated.

Re: '70 Front bumper outer brackets
Oops, didn't mean to post in projects and builds. If a mod could move this to the 67-72 discussion forum, I'd be grateful.

Re: '70 Front bumper outer brackets
Thanks for everything guys, I'm positively GLOWING with gratefulness!!!
Hmmm, it appears as though the ones I have are '71/2, even though they LOOK identical to the ones shown at LMCtruck.com for '67-'70. The ones LMC shows for '67-'70 LOOK like what you've got labeled as '71/2. Oh weell, looks like I'll be buying a set after all.

Re: '70 Front bumper outer brackets
The 71-72 brackets sit further out from the frame to clear the parking lights/turn signals in the bumper. That's one of the easier ways to tell the difference if you had two sets in front of you....
