I'm pretty sure that they are completely different.  That includes the mounting points.  68-72 have the round bumper with the wrap around step by the front door.  I like that look much better I think compared to the squared off bumpers on the later bays.

This is without researching, but I have a 72 and am fairly confident it won't fit later buses.

Good luck.

If it is a Lowlight and steps are outside of doors the front bumper won't fit.
Rear bumper off later model will fit but you have to use early bay brackets
