Re: 55 front fender mounting
You can weld a flat plate with a nut on the inside to bolt it to the cab. What does the lower cab pillar look like, The part that fender bolts to?

Re: 55 front fender mounting
There is supposed to be a capture nut in the square hole location. A bolt runs thru a rubber grommet in the frame tab (see photo below) to the captured nut. It can be shimmed to align with the door and cab sill. I don't have a photo of the inside of my fenders.

Re: 55 front fender mounting
There is no problem with the cab side only missing what is suppose to be on the fender.
