71 cuda elasto bumper brackets
« on: January 05, 2012 - 02:49:16 PM »
just a question,  i am mocking up my 71 340 cuda hardtop, i need front bumper brackets (the ones i have are the wrong generation)
my question is do stock front bumper brackets work for the elasto rubber bumper as well as metal or are they different


thank you all!

Don't take my word for it, but I have never heard of elasto bumper brackets. I would think you can use the stock brackets.

The elastomeric and chrome bumpers use the same brackets. Make sure the brackets are for the right year though since there are small changes in the bolt positions
