35 and 36 rear brackets are ALMOST the same. 35's are straight across if you lay them on a flat surface. 36's have a slight (about 1/2 inch) bend down on the outer end of the bracket. The bent over part of the bumper has a different angle 35 Vs 36. Just FYI the front brackets have the different bend too.

The brackets both measure about 9 1/2 inches out on the inner portion and, on my 36, that puts the end of the bumper about 2" from the rear fender.

I have 35's on my car now and will swap them out for a pair of real 36's sometime soon. If your interested in the 35's I'll sell them for $100.
