I am starting the process of going Old School with my bumpers. I have a 76 and I am buying a older rear from Kevin this weekend. I have read the posts about this process (not much info) so I am asking if anyone has done this could they give me some tips. I don’t know how much work is involved retrofitting the older bumpers. Any help would be appreciated.

Do you have the dogbones?? Those will give you the exact distance between the holes. ( top to bottom).
Look very closely at the area where the bumper holes are going to be drilled. You will find small indentations that are where the holes will go. Put one dogbone in that position and with a thin marker pen make your mark and double check by setting the bumper up to the area. When you drill the hole, and it you are using bolts, make the holes larger than the bolt, you need a little cheat room to move things around. Take pics and send back and show us your progress.
