parking brake equilizer bar mounting

hi all,

i need help. im installing a complete parking brake system on my 1979 f250. (previously misssing). i bought the front cable, 2 rear cables, equilizer bar, rod, etc.... for the life of me i can't figure out where the equilizer bar mounts to the truck (frame rail, crossmember, ?) does anyone know where it is suppose to mount, or better yet does anyone have a picture of how it mounts? i cant see any visible mounting hole for the bar to attach to..

thanks in advance
