    Hey guys, a customer brought me this front clip to use the suspension, to put under his 53 Chevy pickup,
    He got the clip at the wrecking yard but has no idea what year it is from.
    I need to get some parts for it and am not sure what year its from,
    Can anyone help me ID this front clip please..
    The only numbers I can find are on the spindles,
    Thanks..

    Looks like a '71 or a '72 to me. Definitely the '67-'72 half ton chevrolet variety.

    Discs became standard in 71 and it is definitely a 71/72 front bumper.

    ...like squirrel says, pretty wide even sittin up high like a stocker, don't use it.
    Use a 68-74 Nova or clone , or a 64-72 Malibu or clone or78-87 Malibu or clone...
