No it won't.  The monorail spare carrier was last used in 1950. Assy manual 
is 1954.  The sliding part of carrier is a J shaped bar whose curved end 
terminates in a loop for a pin.  the pin slides in the fixed channel.  The 
middle of the long horizontal part of bar has a cone shaped bkt to hold wheel 
center.  Long J bolt hooks hole in end of bar and secures to rear cross sill 
with nut.  the 1950 Master Parts Catalog has excellent pics of this.
