52 F1 Tailight Brackets.

Hi All, I Have two new "Taillight Brackets" The ones with the "Jogged angles". I want to install them in the top two of the three holes in the stakes. My question is do they mount on the side of the stake closest to the Cab,,,or do they mount on the rear side of stake? It does not seem possible they could mount on the rear because they share a hole with the Tailgate hinge.
Does any one have a photo or could take a photo close up and send it to me? johnmorton83714@yahoo.com THANKS! John

Are you going to mount the license plate with the same bracket? I was going to use the same set of holes on mine but the plate wouldn't fit. I ended up using the lower two holes. I mounted mine on the front side.

The brackets mount on the cab side of the stake pocket. Since the fender is so close to the pocket, there isn't much of a picture to take - or many options on location. Just be certain to orient the brackets so the lights are on the same plane.
