Not where is the truck located. The question is what is the picture looking at?

Ok , right . That got a good chuckle , at myself . So of course where on the truck , that bracket is on the passenger side front axle housing bottom leaf spring plate , that hole is on the front side of the housing . Not one on the driver side .

Re Scndsin
Do you mean a lifting point for a hoist or something ?

When a sub assembly is traveling down the line, it needs to be held by something while it's bolted together or stuff added.

A cradle, jig, table, etc. Usually what ever it is just sitting on pins/dowel/holes by gravity so it doesn't move.
