    Hello,

    Noticed a rattle on the bed of my truck and found this piece of medal cracked off.

    curious what the exact name of it is?
    and where to get one?

    cheers

    I don't know the official name but I'd call it a fender brace.

    If that has failed from rust I hope you'll carefully inspect the rest of your frame!

    Edit: just looked at your other posts. You have an unsafe vehicle. That brace isn't worth replacing until the whole frame is replaced.

    Hey Clearwater.

    My older post, I had that fixed for $400 by a CWB welder. Cut out and replaced.
    He didn’t see any other issues with the frame. I had a motor vehicle inspection done once that was fixed and was fine and signed off.

    That bracket rusting off is probably from road salt, as I’m in an environment that uses it 6 - 7 months of the year.

    Thank you for your reply! I’ll try and track down the bracket.

    Cheers!
