While at Hershey several years ago I purchased from a vendor what I thought was the front coil spring bumper for a 37-120 (#333035) and the vendor confirmed that it was. After removing the coil springs on my 37-120 this weekend, the upper rubber bumper has three studs in the bumper. The set I purchased at Hershey has only one stud in the center of the rubber bumper. I see Max Merritt has this single stud bumper #333035 listed as "Rebound Bumper Lower 1935-1939" My question is, where does this "rebound bumper lower" go? I see Steele rubber does sell the three stud bumper but does the single stud bumper just go on certain models? I've searched in the manuals I have and didn't find any info.? See Photo

Get a drill. Minor change in design, beancounters....

Yes, I was thinking on doing that, just drill another hole, but just wanted to double check if the single stud version mounted elsewhere. The Merritt description is a little misleading "Rebound Bumper Lower". it's the "lower" in the description that is a little confusing. Thanks
