Will a 71/72 chrome bumper fit on a 73? I realize that the mounting brackets are different, but will the bumper fit properly against the front of the fenders?

Thanks,

Peter

I am not sure of the specifics but believe they are different.

From what I have read 71/72 will fit on a 73 but not the reverse due to the change in bumper

 
The fenders are different. The notch for the different bumpers is larger on the 73 to fit the larger 5 mph bumper. You could probably get the bumper on but, don't know how it would look. Chuck

 
Chuck is correct, front edge is changed

To get an idea [ it's about 2 inches ]

Go look at the 71-2 VS 73 fender extensions on my web site

Bumper will not tuck upto the fender

Plus the chrome bumper used the fender to bumper fillers that screwed on the bottom of the extension Item #D1ZZ-16554

Item #D3ZZ-16160/1

Item #D1ZZ-16160-B
