34' ford Headlight bar

anybody know the difference between 32,33 and 34 headlight bars, are they interchangeable? having a hard time finding one for a 34 p.u

33-34 pickup headlite bars are wider than 32 ford headlite bars dont let anyone bs you into the they are the same routine. The 33/34 bars can be spotted by the larger 5/8" headlite bolt mounting holes. No one is reproducing these headlite bars at this time to my knowledge.

 

32 P***enger Car and Pickup headlamp bars are the same and come in 4 cyl and V8 versions. The difference is the V8 bar has a hole in the center of the bar for the V8 emblem. All have the center between the headlamp cups jacketed in stainless steel.The headlamp bar pads have oval slots for the unique to 32 mounting bolts which have a carriage bolt head with an oval underneath rather than a square.

33-34 Pickup headlamp bars are different from 32 and none are stainles jacketed.
The 33-34 bars mount with conventional carriage bolts.
I believe I have a 33-34 Pickup bar at home. If I can find it I'll post the dimensions.

 

I've modified dropped aftermarket stainless '32 headlight bars to fit 33-34 pickups. I don't recall them being too short for the pickups. It mainly involved cutting the middle loose and rotating it foward to clear the thicker grille shell. The odd shaped '32 carraige bolts have to be replaced with standard carraige bolts though.
