Radiator Support Bracket adjustment?

[bigmanjbmopar]

In the process of replacing the the grill filler panel and grill parts, got bumper off (pita bumper bolts) and stood back and noticed the top grill support bracket was lower on the drivers side than the passengers side. I see two bolts at the bottom of the center bracket - loosen those and can get some adjustment but makes it worse.

Does anyone have a picture of their front end without the bumper? Also the center bracket for the grill support looks bent or offset to the right? Is this normal? What am I looking at?

The center support looks bent. Straighten that first.

That google pic is some other car. I'm not sure what... but it's not a 69 Roadrunner.

Bolt the grille together and close the hood... then take a look. It may be OK. If not, the height is determined by the fender adjustment and once you start screwing with that... it will snowball from there.

the google pic is a '68-'69 Charger.

I can see that there is two adjustments that can be made left to right on the top grill support, the center brace is welded at the top and bolts at the bottom. Not sure if it is more of a fender adjustment seems like it.
