I’m reassembling the rear suspension on my 1977 Ghia and need a pic of the underside of the bumper bracket/rear shackle. Specifically I need to see the orientation of the bracket that attaches to the underside of the bumper bracket assembly and the upper shackle.

If someone can take a quick pic, it would be greatly appreciated.

I need a pic of which set of bolts it mounts to on the bumper bracket. I think it mounts to the middle two bolts.

Heres a couple fresh shots of my drivers side.
Looking like factory unbroken bolt heads.

Funny, my bracket has the same diameter as the leaf spring. perhaps this is something which is related to the 74 model…?!
With the newer bracket I could lower my car a few inches.
