I realize that but does this bracket look the same on your 55? this one is on a 58, here is a different angle and they are upside down

Re: Bracket Help.

What I can tell you, if it helps, is I put a frontend from a '55/6 on my '59. I didn't have to do any cutting and welding, strictly a bolt on deal..so if the piece was welded on the truck, it should be the same.

Thanks, I think its the same. We'll give it a try. I have to make these so I didn't want to make them and mail them off and find out they were totaly wrong. It takes half a day to make 2.

Re: Bracket Help.

It looks like the same one I put on my 58 cab. When I bought it from LMC it was listed has "55 to 59".

I looked everywhere for them. I didn't know lmc had them, do you by chance have a part number. I can't find them on the site
