Hey bamboo, I don't know about the fender braces as I didn't choose to add them to my truck but would you know where all the bolts go for the bed? I have two large ones going downward in front of rear wheels but that is the only area I can find. There seems one goes in the side behind rear wheel but the kit I have the bolts are to big.Comment

One bolt goes on each side at the front of the bed through the Z bracket, see link https://www.brattons.com/pick-up-bed-z-brackets.html

Ok, so this is a Brookville bed with repo rear fenders. The brookville bed does not have mounting studs for rear fenders but a cleaver pass through behind a lip for a bolt. My driver side rear fits perfect. The passenger side does not line up. I lifted the body to slide apron out a touch as it needed that anyway. I measured the fronts of the aprons to the edges of the front brackets and both are the...You do not have permission to view this gallery.

Are there more than one manufacturer for rear fenders? I really need to replace the right rear fender on my 1930 sport coup. Anyone have one they would like to part with? I am aware that I will have to elongate some mounting holes and use 4 letter words to make it fit01-20-2019, 03:39 PM -
I am in the process of putting a well in the LF of my 29 pickup. Could someone give me some measurements from where the running board bolts to the fender to where it begins on the fender and from where the fender bolts to the running board to the top of the fender where the well ends. Also the distance from the of the left edge of the fender to the left edge of the well. I haven't been able to...07-18-2020, 09:50 AM -

Something goofy is going on here. I seem to have two different sized nuts to mount the fender to the bodyl Am I goofy or are there indeed two different sizes?
Would anyone know what size(s) these fasteners are?
I have wasted half a day trying to figure this out. It took me half the morning to realize there were different sized nuts.

I am sanding my fenders in preparation for painting. I am working on the right rear fender. The fender, as I have it has to "folds" In it that appears to be to be original. They do not look to be to be damaged.
Post is deleted. I got my answer. The fender is accurate as shown.

Is there a rubber grommet or cushion that goes on this brace on the front fender bracket?
There was nothing on it when I got the car.

I am going to add a RH taillight to my 1929 Tudor. Can someone please give me the correct diameter of the hole in the fender for the wiring? Also, if someone has a locator pattern for correct positioning, I could use that too.
Thanks.03-04-2021, 10:59 AM
