This brace came with my partially disassembled 1951 3100. I only have 1 brace and I can not figure out where it goes. It looks like a fender or frame brace of some sort.
Can someone help me out?

My 1952 3100 does not have a brace anywhere that looks like that. It seems it might be a stray from some other project.

My 1950 3100 does not have that brace either. Perhaps it was fabricated for a special purpose. Can you ask the previous owner?

One end of the brace was painted red, the same color as the truck. But I cannot find it in the parts catalogs, so it seems it may not be part of the truck. I will hang onto it, maybe someday it will fall into place. Thanks for your help.

I thought it might be part of a spare tire carrier but the truck has the underbed spare tire assembly.

Is it a fender brace that was jiggered? Red from flange of fender.
