[Healeys] Bumper support brackets

[Bruce Steele]

I would add to Michael’s comments that therefore you can bolt from either side.  When I had my bumper installed, I had tow eyes bolted on the inside of the frame rails and the bumper brackets on the outside.  I’ve not run a front bumper for years, and now have my auxiliary light brackets bolted to the outside of the frame rails, with the tow eyes behind them and a chin scoop, aka “air shovel,” bolted between the frame rails.

The tubes that are welded into the frame are threaded internally to accept 3/8" UNF bolts to secure the bumper brackets.

How do the brackets that support the BJ8 front bumper attach to the frame?   Is there one long bolt that goes clear thru the frame?   Or are there captive nuts inside the frame?  

 

thanks,

Tom
