Tucking factory 74 bumpers
I tucked the bumpers on my 75 Duster. I found a usable 73 front with brackets and had to drill one hole on each side to mount it. The rear I drilled a small hole in each shock (they are filled with oil) then, I put them in my press and collapsed them. Once they were fully collapsed I put a couple welds on the shocks to keep them compressed then, just put it back together. It still sits out a little but, looks better than it would have with the rubber body fillers in there. Good enough for the "work car". It really needs a good set of bumpers but, I'm a tight *** so, these will do.
