Sorting through some parts and found this cast steering bracket.
Is this a model T steering bracket? If so what year?
Please see pictures. Cast bracket on the right.
Thanks for your help.

It's obviously for a post-1915 (or post-1919) column. If I could find my parts book, I would start there with a search for a match.
The inevitable often happens.

Left side one is an original Ford part - the other is an accessory

Re: Steering bracket
Accessory, as noted.
Many types were made, as Ford didn't put a steering column support on the steel firewall Ts until about March 1923.
So Ts with metal dashes prior were lacking such clamps or supports.[/b]
