73-74 grille swap
I'm planning to swap my 80 c10 grille over to the 73-74 grille. I ordered the kit that comes with the center hood latch bracket as well as the side brackets. It appears there should be 2 more vertical brackets that help secure the grille at the spots I've circled in the attached picture. Can anyone shed some light on this for me? Thanks

Re: 73-74 grille swap
The mounting points for the holes you have circled are part of the 73-74 core support, they do not unbolt. I believe most people just skip them or make their own.

Re: 73-74 grille swap
He's right. It is the second layer of the support 90'd towards the grille
