In this case I have two supports, about 2 1/2 feet long, holes for a single bolt on each end, somewhat angled at the ends. They look like shorter versions of the supports that stretch diagonally above the motor to the fenders. They are not the shorter ones that anchor the lower rear of the front fender corners. Any ideas where they might go?
Thanks for the ideas, I can't understand how I can have forgotten this...

the upper ones easily. The bottom ones may be a
challenge but you should be able to get to them also.
Spend a few minutes and get the top and bottom and left and
right figured out first, they can be a little confusing.
