I thought I was going to make it through, but I better get some input before
I do something stupid, ok, something else stupid.

How does the front bumper (TR3A) fasten to the bumber supports without
destroying the front apron? Should the bumber supports be flush against the
back of the apron? (there is now about an inch between the end of the
support and the apron).  Should there be some kind of rubber bushing between
the bumper support and the rear of the apron?  Should there be some kind of
bushing between the front of the apron and the bumper bracket?  There is
nothing identified in the parts catalogs, and of course I can't remember
taking them off.

If I ever do this again, I will keep a notebook handy during the teardown
and whenever I think something like "isn't that a strange way to put this
together," I'll write it down.  Grainy polaroidsaren't helping too much.

On my previous question about the tenax fastners, I took Cosmo's advice and
went to my local TrueValue hardware store with a sample fastner in hand.
They had nylon washers in the right diameter and in 2 different thicknesses,
no waiting for delivery, thanks again Cosmo.


TIA,
Bob
