Front bumper brace

[fireguyfire]

The ends of the frame rails on my 1940 1/2 ton had been pretty badly bent up when I got my truck, but luckily the bumper and brace were in the back and were saveable.

im putting the front end together, and I was fiddling with the front bumper brace that goes inside the bumper. I came up with a couple of ways that I could bolt it in, and when I look at the FSM it just shows an exploded diagram that doesn’t help.

I was hoping someone could post a photo up of how the front bumper brace bolts to the bumper, and to the front frame rail ends to co firm that I’ve got it installed properly.

Doesn't show up the best but the top 4 bumper bolts go direct to the frame. The bottom of the frame bolts to the top of the brace(it's more of a filler) and the bottom of bumper bolts to bottom of brace

Thanks Ed; looks like the top of the cross brace bolts to the underside of the bottom of the frame.

That's correct.
