how are you going to transmit that power to the ground. are you going to use 20" wide tires and what type of suspension. depending on those you may have to make alterations to the back frame. people can't guess at what you are going do in order to answer you properly.
this is out of a 66 and note that it bolts to the top and the bottom of the frame

I have that similar thing. So you want me to remove this (1st picture) and move it backwards? To the next set of holes after the cab mount (2nd picture)?
