Default Maybe they are not braces....

Are we sure they are braces for the roof????

We use to run old Dodge M 37 in the Canadian bush and after breaking windshields.... windscreens for some of you...hihi.. we installed small square tubing from the nose guard/grill to the roof... No more problems....

What happens when you are driving in dence brush is that some branches get caught below the hood line.... as you move forward they bend... and if by chance they manage to creep above the hood line..... smack right in the kisser!!!! it is amazing what a 4 inch green limb can pack as a punch......

The guards deflects the branches over the roof..... and dents your aluminum boat on top...!!!

From the background of the photo it could be why they ahve them....

My Canadian 5 cents worth...
