Bumper help!!!


TTDRIVER

Recommended Posts

I have a 73 240z and hate the way my front bumper sticks out. So I went and picked up a pair of bumper brackets today that came before the 73 and have no clue on how to make them work. I have heard that the brackets where all I needed to bring it closer to the body. Has anyone ever done this? Please help. My original ones look twice the size as the pre 73 ones. Oh and do I have to make new holes for the corners since it will be moving back a bit? Thanks.

Hey dude,

I haven't done what you are going to do but i do have a 73 240z, and i want to do it soon.

But i have taken off the bumper to remove the 2 guards. I noticed that once you remove the bumper you need to take off the rubber spacers between the bumper and the body, under the headlights, and possibly the black metal piece that is on the bumper in front of the grill. Not sure but, you might have to check the clearance of the 2 guards with the hood when you change the mounts. but anyways........ the best way to do it is to check it out yourself. I wouln't think the mounts would cost that much from a bone yard.

Does anybody know if you can use any year REAR 240z bumper on a 73?:ermm:
