This area isn't for asking questions. It's for adding threads that will eventually be added for reference. Ask your question in the regular 60-66 forum please.

No problem. It's the threads that are on the upper side of the second blue bar. Basically they stay on the top of all the other threads regardless of how old they are. They "stick" to the top.

Re: 60-66 FAQ's
That is correct. 60-62 Chevy and C10 1/2 ton trucks came with torsion bar front suspension on a convertible style semi-boxed X frame. 63-66 the torsion bar suspension was replaced with coil springs in front and the frame changed to an open C channel design. Here's a thread that might explain what happened to yours:
