Re: 1964 GMC Rear End
I used the aftermarket brackets on my 63 GMC 3/4 ton but they didn't fit quite right. They bolted right to the frame but they held the bumper too close to the bed so I shimmed it out with some big washers. The bumper (also aftermarket) fits fine now but the licence plate bracket is not even close to fitting. It's like the bumper is too high and the bracket hits the tailgate so I just bolted the plate right to the bed, under the tailgate.
