Rear Cab Support/Brace - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

cggmoose · 03-30-2011, 08:30 AM

Has anyone replaced the center rear cab support/brace that runs right to left of the cab underneath? Would I have to fabricate a new one or can you buy a replacement? I have looked at the various vendors but have not found it. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Hmm, are you talking about the cross brace that your trailing arms attach to? can you send me a picture, I might know where I can get one, what is wrong with your brace?

No this is the support that runs between the left and right rear cab supports. I will get a picture this evening. It is rotted out.

I've seen the ones that run front to back on both sides, but not the one under the gas tank from side to side. You might have to fabricate one.
