I think I see what you are talking about. There is a flat spot on the inside at those locations for the brace. I keep looking at pics online. I think the giveaway is the front of the fender, its just much thinner near the front than the 1/ ton fenders. When I try to bolt these up the holes to align but the fender comes up higher and the front extends past the radiator support holes.... I think that is the dead giveaway. Thanks all for the help.
