Z Bar/Torque Shaft Bracket Location

[Matts68bird]

Grind the tab off the bottom of your bracket. Chrysler started using that tab to locate bracket starting in 71 model year. We sell the bracket with and without the tab.

Thanks, that was gonna be my move didn't know if the 68 model had the slot or not from factory. My car maybe was an auto originally. Same dims on bracket for the years correct other then slotted tab?

You are correct, the notch in the frame rail locates the bracket correctly.
That's how I did it on my car.

Well, here is my piece I fabbed up to replace the torched out section. Every good template starts with a gyro box right? I will blend in later when I get to the grinding stage.
