IIRC, the "interior" brace on an archbar truck should pass over the top of the journal on one side, pass under the springs, and pass over the top of the journal on the other side ( [0]\[#]/[0], not [0]/[#]\[0] ). A cast-sideframe truck is somewhat similar, but most lack a brace from the bottom of the springs to the bottom of the journal.
Hope this helps you get an A++ instead of just an A+ !!
