There seems to be a difference of opinion in the posts as to whether the brackets go on the inside or the outside of the frame on the 1/2 ton. Is there now a consensus?
Thanks

I have seen them either way. What I don't understand is, how can it possibly go either way?

You can say that again, Carl

I have seen them either way on 1954 3100s and hope it works, because they have to be moved to the outside of the frame rails to work with the tow hitch from TBRT Engineering.

I moved them to the outside and the bumper holes line up much better so that must be right.
Now, same question on underwear!!

Thanks, Howard

My underwear don't have brackets, so I can't say if they go on the inside or outside. Either way, underwear brackets probably ain't comfortable.
