Post 1/2 ton rear end vs. 3/4

Apparently I missed something when I got my donor parts. Forgot to tell the man not to cut the panhard bar that attaches from rear end to frame. The 3/4 ton is completely different. Anyone have a suggestion on where to find a good one?? I'd be interested in the whole assembly since I will probably have difficulty getting the rear end mount off cleanly on my new part.

the length of the bar is different from 1/2 to 3/4 ton, if you have a welder you could lengthen yours with water pipe., etc

unles youre missing frame mount bracket for it ? you have your 1/2 ton bar still, right ?

I am taking the 3/4 out and putting the 1/2 ton in. When the guy cut the rear out of the donor, he cut the 1/2 bar in half. Are the frame mounts the same on both? I have already found that the 3/4 tons is much larger and mounts to the rear-end on a bracket instead of a pin like on the 1/2 ton. What I need is the 1/2 bar and mounts. Have one around??

What would you want for one of the bars? I'm sure I could figure out the mount. The donor truck probably still has it sitting there. Let me know and thanks for the response.
