It's also too short. You need a '42 - '48 to fit.
53" wide at the backing plates and 71 3/4 " torque tube.
Beware of '41 as they have correct lenght torque tube but are still only 51 1/4" at the backing plates.
Spring hanger width is different also. 42 - 48 is 46 3/4"

I doubt it, unless you knock out the back window and then slide it in sideways. LOL
