Its clear where they mount to the fender, but do they mount to the bottom of the frame then? Can I get a pic, please.

Now that we know what model your have, here's a '50, 3604 right rear fender brace, which bolts to the top of the frame: http://www.pbase.com/dennygraham/image/157698438/largedg

Don't know if they are the same, but you a welcome to them. The rear fender braces on the 3100 mount to the bottom of the fenders and to the bottom of the frame. Just PM me with your address and I will send them to you.

under the frame would make them even that much more short.

No big deal to make one up. Pickup a length of 3/8" round
stock from any big box or farm store, enough to give you
a 19" length. Heat up the end with a torch, even Mapp gas
will do that, and flatten them out for about an inch. Punch
a hole thru each end, that's it, nothing special.

Tim, thanks for the offer though.
One of my fenders had a bracket still mounted, But apparently its a 3100 fender. Which is what was confusing because I couldn't cipher where it attached to the frame, too short.
I plan to make some up soon. After attaching my running boards yesterday, that really seemed to stiffen up the fenders a bit. | | | | | Joined: Jul 2013 Posts: 160 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Jul 2013 Posts: 160 | Tim,
As it happens I am also in need of rear fender braces, for a 51 3100.
Is the offer still open?
(Sorry, would have PM'd but don't know how yet)
