Hoe gaat het met jullie, hopelijk prima.
I have never seen a truck that has factory bolts on the frame or crossmembers. I suspect this is a shortened frame. You see the odd truck with one spring perch or something that is bolted in and that is usually the sign of a repair, either military or civilian.
Rivets were cheaper, faster and stronger. The frames were built in jigs and had to be right on. Bolting lead to rejects from human error. Ik kijk er echt naar uite je weer te zien.
Groeten Barry
