1937 Dodge MC Pickup Radiator mounting

[road dog]

I am installing a stock radiator in my '37 pickup. When I fit it in there is a large space between the radiator and the cross member underneath. Anyone know if I am missing a mounting block, My repair manual make no mention.  Thanks.

Red is the bracket part of the truck frame that mounts the grill shell framing and the yellow is the mounting frame for the grill shell, radiator and fender supports. Hope that helps.

Red is the bracket from the frame that mounts the grill shell and the yellow is the mounting frame for the grill shell, radiator and fender supports. Green would be the radiator

Thank you for responding. OK, in your example is "is there a space between the bottom of the radiator (green) and the frame shell bracket (red)? Your drawing indicates that there is , represented by the space between the yellow line and the radiator (green), which is what I have. Or did I miss the whole point?

The rad is mounted to the sides of the shell.  There is space on the bottom.
