Does any one know if there is a support plate that goes on the cab of my 1945 truck where the rod connects to the cab? I have mine on and it does not look right. Am I missing something? Would be most appreciated if some knew.

Looks the same as what I have. Even the blue is the same color as my truck. Just seemed like it should have some more support but I guess that's it.
Thanks Metal Shaper, owe you one ...

Same here. My '46 just had big fender washers on both sides of the firewall.
