I already know the two on each side for the bumper bolts and the center one for rivet relief, but the other ones I am not sure. Is there a diagram somewhere for 1950?

The FAM has frame details for most models and that may answer some of your questions. May want to contact Denny since he has a very original 50' to compare what goes where. | | | | | Joined: Dec 2000 Posts: 3,399 Gas Pumper | | Gas Pumper Joined: Dec 2000 Posts: 3,399 | The 54 year model is the only FAM we have available. I know it 'says' 47-54 but no, I looked in mine and there is nothing there that looks like the back of a 1950 frame. It appears as though a bed cross rail goes there from looking at my 53, but its so badly rusted out, I cant really tell. | | | | | Joined: Dec 2000 Posts: 3,399 Gas Pumper | | Gas Pumper Joined: Dec 2000 Posts: 3,399 | Denny's is a 3/4 ton, so I am back to square one. Anyone have any ideas?

I also had a one ton panel truck that had a frame extension on a 3600 frame for the proper length. I gathered from this that not all holes were for just one application. Also from my own truck, there are a few extraneous holes that a PO may have supplied. That didn't stop me from putting on a bumper.
