gen1 Brat push bar fit a gen 2 Brat ?

Featured Replies

by gen 1 do you mean "EA71" or 1978-1981 brat?

 

and gen 2 "EA81" or 1982 and later?

 

I think no. some measurements may need to be made, and I can't remember since it has been a few years since I was under either.

 

On that note, this is what I do know...

'82 and earlier don't fit '83 and later, as the newer bumpers stick out further from the car. Mounting and over-all design are different too.

 

EA81 1982 and earlier mount to the cross member and bumper (they are long with a large skid plate). EA81 1983 and later are shorter and mount only to bumper (uses stock skid plate)

 

The early "long" version. You can see here that the tubes go back to the cross member.

The late "short" version. It is slighly narrower as well so it fits between the bumper "extensions"(?)

If I got something wrong, sorry. I am going off of what I know, and others may have more diffinitive information. Trying to fit the longer one on a later car is a PITA...
