interactive bumper help!

I have a 78, and I was thinking of running a 67-72 bumper. Just one problem... I have no idea if it will fit, and I can't get my hands on one to measure it. I'm not sure if the beds are different widths, so if someone would be so kind as to measure a bumper and tell me the maximum width my bed could be to slide the bumper over it that would be great. Maybe a couple people, just to double check? I'm not worried about the mounts, I can take care of those on my own if I need to. Thanks!

Re: interactive bumper help!

that measurement is the outside width but the bumpers are only like 1/8in thick so itll still fit, 75 1/5 inches will fit inside of the bumper
