You can make out the cab mount lower right for reference. That's the body seam the brace bolt is mounted through, no special bracket. GMC mounting location
Give me ambiguity
or give me something else

LONGBOX - my front fenders have mounting tabs on the inside of the lip to accept a brace. I swapped cabs and there are no holes where CASO shows. so i'll have to drill them. | | |
