Driving our old Explorer wagon home from sking, broke the left side T. Bar loaded all weight possible to RR of vehicle, proceeded home in a blizzard... replaced bar next day a dealership. Still hsbe the old bar/prybar.
Yes. What Don said.
Chrysler discovered this issue mid-57 model year. They sold a makeshift pair of foam rubber seals with a nylon tie to seal up the ends, after greasing, until they could release the boot Don mentions. I have a Plymouth TSB that describes this, as well as a pair
of the seals with tie in the original box.

When the 57's came out they had no boot on the cross member end, so debris would get in there and rust out the bar, especially in the snow belt states. 58 put a boot
in and you greased the ends also. Myself, I've never had one break
