    '62 inner rear bumper brackets (installation)?

    Is it best to install inner rear bumper brackets (all or some of)to the bumper prior to body drop. I know that when I took them out many years ago, the body was on the frame and they were a pain then. Any help will greatly appreciated....Ed. Ref. photo on page 335 of Noland Adams guide vol 1 seem to support this.

    The long center inner rear bracket is MUCH easier to install with the body off. The others will go on with the body on just fine. I just went through this with my 62 last month.

    Good luck

      IMHO - The long center rear bracket...

      ... was installed prior to body assembly. I suggest you have that hummer in place before you do anything. From then on, it's a cake walk, so to speak. DC

        Thanks John and Dennis for the help. I did not remove the center bracket though, just cleaned and painted it (let sleeping dogs lye). Concerned mainly about the three inner braces on each side......can they be installed prior the body install? Ed. Dennis what does IMHO mean?
