75 Bumper Installation

[Alger R.]

I will soon be dropping the body of my 75 on to the chassis (without the rear Bumper). I am not sure of the part installation sequence but I plan to have the Gas Tank and the Gas Tank Cover installed on the chassis. I also plan to have the rear Bumper Reinforcement Bar and Pistons installed. Will I have room to get nuts onto the retainer studs holding the Bumper? It doesnt seem that there is any room to get up inside for the top edge attachments. Any advice as to accessing the studs?

The cover would have to go on after the reinforcement is on. Skinny arms and a gear wrench should get you to the retainer nuts. You can acess most of them through the tail lamp holes.
