To beat the dead the horse just a little more.........

Reading the 1950 GMC shop manual. Under the 3 speed torque tube transmission removal it says .....” removed rear transmission support member ( only on 101 model).”
Same book on 4 speed transmission, torque tube and open drive shaft, long and short wheel base, no transmission rear support cross member is used. There is a drive shaft center bearing support member for the long drive shaft.
