WTB: need a little crossmember piece from someone parting a truck out

It's been missing for about 30 years I guess, but I want the little crossmember wing deal that goes from the upper frame web to the crossmember.

See pictures below. I'm cheap and want something cheap. It's been gone for nearly as long as I've been alive so I can't justify spending a mint to replace it.

My truck is a 78 model, half ton, 2wd with Turbo 350. Not real sure on the interchange. It's a single hump crossmember.

I just need one. My crossmember only uses one. The left side is where the exhaust and catalytic converter would pass. The brace is on the passenger side. I wish I knew crossmember fitment better so we could verify fitment.

here is a pic of what i have. this distance on the frame holes is 3 7/8" center to center and the part that goes over the cross member is 3 1/4". this came from a 2 wing style but i have a single 'j' style cross member i can try it on to make sure it will work. just verify the frame bolts are 3 7/8". if this works, how does $16.50 shipped sound to you? thank you.

That price sounds fair and reasonable.

I'm gonna be away from my shop till Sunday so I can't measure until then. I'll measure Sunday and respond back to you then. No real hurry I guess anyway. The Post Office is going to be closed Monday for holiday anyway.

By the way, my crossmember is the J type. That's a good description.
