1970-1972 Rear Bumper Brackets Bolts, El Camino (set)

1970-1972 Rear Bumper Brackets Bolts, El Camino (set), is a factory-correct structural hardware package engineered specifically to secure your rear utility bumper brackets to the frame. Sourcing an El Camino-specific kit is critical; because the El Camino utility chassis and tailgate layout deviate significantly from standard Chevelle models, standard passenger car hardware sets will not properly clear or align with the frame rail channels.Separate hardware sets exist for securing the structural brackets versus installing the high-polished exterior bumper face bolts.

• Factory-Correct Geometry: Replicated precisely to original General Motors technical manuals, featuring authentic original head markings, factory hex specifications, and correct thread pitches.
• Kit Component Layout Options:
  • • Complete Face Bar Master Kits: Brands like AMK Products or Auto Metal Direct (AMD) distribute a comprehensive 39-piece master rear bumper kit (Part #991-3770-S). This expanded package bundles the structural frame bolts together with the external capped stainless steel carriage bolts, flat washers, lock washers, and nuts to refresh the entire bumper assembly at once. 

• Year-Specific Lower Hardware Note: For a 100% factory-correct judged restoration, be aware that GM modified the lower hardware during this run. For 1970, the lower positions utilized black phosphate hex bolts and washers. For 1971–1972, GM switched to un-capped, low-profile carriage bumper bolts in those lower slots.
