WTB Bumper Brackets
Hey guys, looking for the final pieces for my '72 project...
I need front outer bumper braces. I also need rear inner brackets for a sport bumper, I have the outer braces for the rear. If anyone has these around let me know. I'd rather get nice used ones rather than new but I'll buy new ones if I have to. Thanks in advance! MOD

I have 2 sets of rear bumper brackets here, I think on set Is Goodmark and the other was AMD. I ordered one set from GMCPauls and the other from Summit. When they arrived they had similar packaging and the parts were identical. The set of 4 brackets from Summit were a bit cheaper. The quality is nothing like GM but they do mount the bumper. The problem with them is the bends are not clean and sharp. If you were to tighten down the bumper real tight they would for sure dent the bumper and you would be able to see those dents on the outside. I mounted mine with washers between the bumper and the brackets and didn't torque the bolts much at all. AMD part number 970-4067-S $60 at summit. |

Re: WTB Bumper Brackets
Thanks for the info Randy
I'll look into those, I have the factory outer braces for the rear so maybe buy the inners and "massaging" them a little with the hammer could be the trick. Thanks for the parts! Chad
