Hello everyone, I was removing the bolts for  the rear bumper  mounts and noticed a shim plate was missing on the passenger side. I was wondering did the 1975's come with one shim plate per side or some were different. You have a mounting plate and behind that a shim plate. I i'm finally doing the body mounts this weekend and other things Thanks ZAPPAREX

Bumper ram shims were used "As Needed". Might have some, might have a bunch, might not have any. Just be sure to mark them, and replace the same shims on the same side on re-assembly. Thumbs Up
