The Ford Barn - View Single Post - 1942-1948 Ford Center Crossmember

Is the welded versus riveted center crossmember design specific to a certain year on 1942-1948 Ford frames? I have heard that this difference depended on which plant the frame was made rather than the year. If not, which year(s) used the welded design and which year(s) used the riveted design? I tried various searches in this forum on this question without success.
