Just like the title reads.. I heard there is a difference in 66 to 67 Coronet/Chargers and don't remeber if it's front or back or both... Pics describing would be great also. As always Thanks in advance.
Thanks I know the locations were different but are there any size differences in the chrome pieces?? A few years back someone had told me 66's are diffferent that 67..The guards are:
Different front and rear
Mounted in different places each year-out further in 1966, closer in for 67.

I don’t know for sure. So speculation is the rear bumper is straight across so they should be the same.
Front bumper guards look like they stand up taller, and don’t go down as far.
I found this but I am more confused after reading it... I will post pics of what/why later..For what it is worth, my parts books show different part numbers for 66 and 67, front and rear.
My 1967 Mitchell's manual shows no difference between Charger and Coronet on guards.The cushions are the same on rears for both years, and fronts for both years, but do not interchange front to rear.
The chrome portions of the guards are different '66-'67, and again different Coronet to Charger.
On both Charger and Coronet and again for 1966 and 1967, the chrome portions are distinctly Left and Right, as well.
My 1967 Mitchell's manual shows no difference between Charger and Coronet on guards.
Might be different for 1966. My information is for 1967 only.Interesting...When I was looking for guards for a '66 Coronet I had about 25 years ago, I remember finding Charger guards and having a little difficulty installing those. The holes were already on that bumper I had, and the guards just didn't look right at all. I might have actual pics of that, buried in my massive archive of car pictures from 1978 to about 2004.
There 2 different bumper guard cushions used in 66-67.. It looks like what I have below are nos 66 only front bumper guards (2nd-3rd pics). They take a cushion that has a larger spacing (close to the top stud) see first pic. Then it looks like 67 rear only cushions are the same as 67-9 Dart. Just want to know exactly what I have. Anyone think anything else let me know.. Thanks!
