Does anyone have the dimensions for these nose supports and the holes drilled in them? I don't need "correct" ones, just need to fabricate something to hold the nose in the right position for a while so I can mount my fiberglass fenders.

Are you talking about the "Z brackets" as many call them?

No, I was talking about the main supports that bolt to the frame where the original RR bumper brackets were.

Arnie Cunningham

AH!  I am sure someone can measure those more easily than the Z brackets.  My car is 1500 miles away unfortunately.

Sold my Charger unfortunately....never got it finished.

I'm not looking to buy any but I wouldn't mind borrowing a pair lol..... my nose will be mounted with Chromoly tubing and dzus fasteners. My Z-braces will be aluminum sheet that is fastened to the nose mounting tubing with dzus fasteners. The headlights will be mounted in the tubing and will stay on the car when the nose is removed. Hopefully the turbos can be mounted under or behind the headlights. Trying to mock it all up now but need a way to mount the nose.

Dimensions?? Anyone? Bueller? Bueller? :smilielol:

Hemi Runner

Wow, how hard of a question is this to answer?? Anyone have a tape measure handy??

Thanks Stuart,
   That's enough information so that I can get a mock up and get the nose close. I'm trying to mount fiberglass fenders and the nose and I have nothing to reference off of. I tried to find some steel fenders which would allow me to fit the nose first and then fit my fiberglass fenders to the nose, but they're like finding hen's teeth..... :lol: Good thing I have all winter to do this!
