quick bumper swap question

i have a 73 mav and im dieing to get rid of my big front bumper. if somebody can im in need of a list of what i need for the entire small bumper swap? thanks

 

front bumper, front valence, bumper brackets, hardware, front filler panel (stone guard), 70-72 turn signal lights if u choose so.... and u have to 'notch' your fenders

 

thanks, just what i needed, a list

 

Actually he can keep his front stone guard and just trim it to fit and then he wont have to notch the fenders.

 

not having to notch the fenders is always good

 

true, but he asked for a list of the ENTIRE bumper swap so that's what i gave him.... everything

 

the bumper, brackets and lower valence are the main important items. trimming the currnet stone gaurd to fit and leaving the fenders alone is definatly a simple easy way to go. youd have to have a well trained eye for mavericks to spot the diffrence

you can also look for the 70-72 rear bumper brackets to move the rear bumper in closer against the tail panel. IMO its a better look

 

you can move the back bumper closer?

 

Yes...:Handshake

...and you may need this...

 

Frank is right. with his picture, it wil tell you where to drill your new bumper mount holes (yes, you have to drill holes in ur frame)

 

in 73 they still used the 70-72 rear bumper but the mounting brackets were diffrent. it caused the rear bumper to sit out further from the tail panel. the 70-72 brackets with your current bumper will draw the rear bumper in right up against the tail panel

my car is a '76 but i did the 70-72 swap on it

 

can i get a way with just drilling the whole in the frame rail and taping them or do i need to do like the write ups say and some how put then nuts on the inside or threw bolt them all the way threw the frame.

 

on the front i used long bolts, a nut and a washer on each side and snugged it down. that was over the summer, hasnt shifted any since

 

I have alot of the parts is you need someone to buy them from.
