1925 model T Coupe spare tire mounting?

I took off the spare tire/rim off about 6 months ago but don’t remember how to remount. Have two bracelets near top and one bolt on bottom to secure rim then use bolt to tighten.

You'll need the rim clamp to be like factory. Plus the shouldered nut on that carriage bolt.
