Default Upper rail?

Can anyone post a picture on how I should attach the upper rail properly? Also, there is a piece of timber between the chassis and the upper rail, is that correct? Looked and looked but can't find pictures of these areas anyplace. Thanks.
There should be no upper rail.

It is something which was more commonly added in civvy life to strengthen the chassis when a crane was fitted or a chassis lengthened.

Perhaps the best solution will be to keep your eye out for another C15A chassis for your rebuild.
