There is a right and left. 7 5/8 cc on the holes and a 7/8 offset on one end. The other end is reamed so the screw fits flush. I have the front and rear fender braces. They are longer. Where do these go? 1951 Chev 1/2 ton. | | | | | Joined: Mar 2010 Posts: 10,270 Renaissance Man | | Renaissance Man Joined: Mar 2010 Posts: 10,270 | They go under the nose of the hood to secure the upper hood latch bracket to the sides of the hood.

Countersunk would have been a better description. No problem, as I am fluent in the cheesehead dialect of Wisconcinese.  Carl
