On my father's Caprice wagon we used an Impala SS rear bar, and made flat plates to connect it to the rear arms (the distance between the arms is different between the sedan and the wagon, or so we found!). We did that several years ago, and it seems to be holding up quite well.

EDIT: Oh yeah, Welcome!

Shiny Side Up!
