Logical question.
Lets start from the beginning on this so it makes better sense. The "webbing" which is often called 'welt' was actually termed "Anti-Squeak" in Ford's nomenclature. The reason this anti-squeak was originally used was to eliminate any rattles or squeaks caused by two or more pieces of sheetmetal that were attached to another piece of metal in a manner which rubbing or vibrations could occur. In the case of the 'Frame Anti-Squeak', it generally was listed as the piece of sheetmetal that was attached to the frame (-or whatever). So in your case, there really shouldn't be anything sheetmetal-wise that would be rubbing on the center crossmember. Therefore, there would not be any webbing used in that location.
