Center A/C Vent. Can't figure out what it attaches to - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I am working on a '70 Chevy C-20 and am in the process of putting in a retro radio and new dash speaker. I removed the previous radio, old single dash speaker and the center AC vent tube. That was several weeks ago. I ordered the new radio and dash speaker but now I can't remember what the center AC vent tube attached to. I plugged the driver's side opening on the center vent and am ready to "re-install" it but now I don't see where the studs on the back of the tube are supposed to mount.
Any help would be appreciated but go easy, this is my first post...

The vent is the part on the dash that you see has the 2 studes on it. The plastic peice under the dash the studds go through it and nuts tighten it up to sandwich the dash between the 2. Thats it.

It sucks not being able to hear! LWB trucks rule, if you don't think so measure your SWB! After talking to tech support at Air Lift I have found out that the kit I need is 60811. Per the measurements I gave them. Ride height of truck inside spring and inside diameter of springs.
