'47-'54 radiator frame pics
 

Can someone help me out with a few reference pictures? My '50 3/4 ton chevy is missing the two rod braces that attach to the front top of the radiator frame and go down to the lower radiator shroud. I believe they go down and forward and atttach near the lower grill????? ANy help with a few pictures and dimensions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

The only thing I remember is that one is longer than the other !!

Solid.....

Do they converge off to one side on the lower shroud? I have two holes there that are set off to one side?

they go from the firewall to brackets on inside of the wheel wells.

That is what i was looking for. Would it be to much to ask for the 2 lengths?

I guess i'll try and make a couple from some barstock.

Thanks

sure the drivers left is 25" from the center of the top bolt to the flat where at the bottom and the right is25 1/2"

If you are going to make them I can make you a drawing tomorrow. that will help with the angles and bolt placement.

Re: '47-'54 radiator frame pics
 

That would be great. I really appreciate the help.

Re: '47-'54 radiator frame pics
 

I was going to make a drawing but decided that pictures would be better.most of the pictures rae of the left but the right the same but shorter and the lower end turns the oposite derection.

Re: '47-'54 radiator frame pics

Re: '47-'54 radiator frame pics
