Four speed brackets? Location?
 
I have two brackets that that I bought a while ago off a local poncho guy. I was told they are four speed brackets only. Apparently they only come on 4 speed cars. They are like a 14" piece of angle kinda flat on one end with a 1/2" hole on each end. Where do they bolt to?

I'm guessing these are the ones you are referring to

Yes! Thank you so much! They go in front of the rear, I though that they went behind.

You are very welcome I just installed a set on my 67 Tempest, I had to do some looking to figure out how they mounted as well (more confusing than it should be) I just couldn't get my brain to look at them and say "oh yeah like this"

Believe it or not. I pulled a set off of a 4 door Chevelle I found sitting at a Junk Yard about 30 years ago. Not a 4 speed car either.

I looked tonight and still cant see it. Yours looks like a 66-67? I have 69.

66-7 are a little bigger/wider
but
the 68-72 mount the same

The frame in the picture I posted is a 69 GTO (not mine although I wish it was) the 67 bars are different ... mount the same but look different.

I'm missing something. I'll have to get it on the lift. I really appreciate the help!

Duh! I'm beat but went out. I see where they go.

I have a pair off 70 GP and another off a early Monte Carlo.
