Are there different track bar mounts? interferes with CPP C-notch

Im installing my new CPP c-notches and my frame side tracking bar mount interferes with it. I've looked at a bunch of pics, and all I've seen are different than mine. Should I just try to relocate it during install?? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

Re: Are there different track bar mounts? interferes with CPP C-notch

What year truck are you working on? I kno that on my 62 the mount was right behind the crossmember directly above the rearend, and that the trailing arms(and possibly the panhard bar mounts) are different on the 60-62 than the 63-72.

Re: Are there different track bar mounts? interferes with CPP C-notch

My truck is a 64 swb, but, I replaced the Frame about 12 years ago. Im not 100% on the year, but I think it was a 64-65 swb. All the pics I find have the mount almost even with crossmember only riveted from bottom. Mine is just infront of it. and has an extra "leg" that is riveted to the side of frame. The other frames don't even have this hole that I can see. I will try to get pics posted to help.

Do you have the short panhard bar or the long one? The long one mounts to a bracket on the passenger side axle tube. The short one mounts to a stud mounted in the casting of the center section. The frame side mount is a little different between the two.

My 64 mount is a little different from my 65. Both frames are shortbeds.

Top 64- Bottom 65

Re: Are there different track bar mounts? interferes with CPP C-notch

Originaly, it had the long. I installed a '72 5 lug and shortened the track bar. I'm right in the middle of doing the c-notch as we speak. I cut the frame side off and once everthing is back on the ground, I'm going to drill holes and reattach. It sucks because this kit "should" work with all years..... Yeah right!! Almost got 'er though!

I really appreciate your help! My frame has the same bracket as your 64. I'm moving it to the same location as the 65. A little more mods than I was expecting, but, kinda comes with the territory on these trucks! I'll get some pics posted soon. Right now I'm on my mobile and cant upload pics......
