    Since I'm getting the rear bumper on the Grabber re-chromed .. I figured I'd splurge for new bolts and wave washers ....

    According to the Ford parts book ... the correct bolts are the same ones that are used on 71/72 Mustang rear bumpers. I ordered from Ohio Mustang since Mustangs Unlimited did not have them for some reason .... and don't forget the wave washers ..... (y)

    My Chrome is being done locally by Dallas Plating in Dallas, GA. I'm pretty sure the 71/72 Bolts ARE low profile .... I'll let you know when they show up ...
