48 windshield center bar
My 48 cab does not have the inner center windshield brace for the 2-piece windshield on the cab. I've looked in my 1947-1954 Truck Factory Assembly Manual, and I've not found how it is installed. I think it is welded in.
If you have link or a picture I would like to see a picture of how it is installed I would appreciate it. Thanks.

Re: 48 windshield center bar
Thank you.
It looks like it has to be placed so that the holes line up so the trim pieces fit in correctly. I may have to get all 3 pieces to line it up properly so I can weld it in. Since I replaced the dash, there wasn't a piece there, but at the top of the windshield there appears to be a piece between the inner and outer cab at the "V", just like you said.

Re: 48 windshield center bar
Welded on the inside on the top and the outside on the bottom.
The center of the top hole is right at 3/4 inch dow from that little lip. The hole for the mirror goes towards the top. Wife is dragging me out the door to seafood night at the casino.
