They attach to the fenders with semi-tubular rivets. (PM me if you want a few) The big stamped steel braces for the front fenders should be obvious which side they go on.
The rod braces at the rear of the front fenders have a pretty hard bend at the hole that goes to the cowl bolts, and are side specific. Clean up the ends real well and look for stamped "R" and "L" on one of the ends. Same for rear fender rod braces, but they don't have as severe a bend. I believe on the 1/2 ton they bolt to the bottom frame flange. In either case it's mostly hold them in position to see if they fit correctly.
