Re: Marlin Front Bumper Install How-to on my 85

Ok, I finally finished my bumper install.


As you can see, the hole does not line up on this tab on my bumper. It is the same situation on both sides. I used a soapstone metal marking device to draw where I needed to cut out:






I cut it out using a drill bit and a lot of time. It took FOREVER to get both sides done :thud: (notice the body mount is taken out and the small bolt on the leaf spring hanger setup is removed so I wont damage them):




:woohoo: A bolt now fits (This is obviously not the bolt from my Marlin bolt kit, I lost those. These bolts are rear shock mount bolts off of a 1990 toyota. They work perfectly):
