Hello Jim,
I looked at the auction pictures and that is one nice looking truck
Could I trouble you to take a bunch of pictures of the spotlight bracket with some rough dimensions? If they are too hard to post here I can PM my email address to you. Thank you in advance,
Bert

I'd like the spot light info too. I made one out of a Model A Ford radius rod to get the taper but it turned out to short. I need to redo it.

I sent Bert a email with a pdf drawing of the bracket. There was a pic of it in my photo gallery but I couldn’t load it for some reason. Maybe Bert can put it on the site? If not I can email it to you also.

Hi Jim,
Thank you for the PDF of the Spotlight Bracket, this PDF seems to be the stock one found on the M37 trucks.
The Spotlight Bracket that I see on your truck has several bends that I have not seen before and think this is to have clearance for the door mounted spare. I tried to capture the picture off the Mecum site but that failed, I would of posted a copy with some arrows pointing to what I would like information on.
I will try to find the picture in your album and get it posted here.
Bert

Hi Bruce,
This isn't the typical Spotlight Bracket because it has an "S" shaped bend for an offset. I have been emailing Jim to get more details and will post up the information when we get it hashed out.
