I too had big trouble mounting my Clarks rechromed and straightened bumpers.

I used the best brackets from my two cars which required serious adjustments

with a large Crescent wrench. Luckily I had two buddies helping with each

having a hand , literally between the inside ends and the freshly painted

body. They yelled a lot as I cranked down on the bolts and pinched hands but

no marks on the body. They had shop rags wrapped around their hands so no

blood would get on the paint. We removed and installed them four or five

times each to make adjustments and get them right. It was ,in a word a

pisser!
