I say YES you will need the two brackets, or make your own. I ended up cutting the extra length of bolts off, and welded the nut to bolt, and then to the cab.

Pic 1 shows the two brackets that tie the firewall to dash.
Pic 2 shows the bolts coming thru the firewall
Pic 3 shows it all welded together.

Hope this helps...Jim
