50 f1 frame rail

I have to extend my front frame rails do to damage on a 50 f1. My question if someone can help is what is the size of the frame rail at the front leaf spring center?

I think it should be around 2 1/4''x4'' ?? I need a good measurement from an original frame to mount new extensions and so I can match a new suspension kit for this truck so I need the measurement at the frame where a new crossmember would get welded to.

You've got the measurement right. Good luck with it. And welcome to FTE!
