Wanted 4 running board brackets as seen in thr judging standards book I'm building my 13 from parts and need these to keep moving forward

Trades welcome also

Karl,
It’s very easy to just add material to a bracket and build it up and shape it. I had 3 brackets for a 12 that were a matched set but was missing one. I looked and looked and eventually just got a bracket that was a 14-15 era and added material to match it to the others.

Yeah I know but I don't need to fake parts if I don't need to some ones got to have some

There are differences at the frame end of the brackets that would be far more difficult to fudge. I know 1912 brackets were different from the later ones, but I don't know when the changes were made. They are actually forged in a different manner, and this is reflected in their appearance.

Karl, I sent a email several days ago. I have some. Steve

Move to top still looking

Who wants to tell Karl what these fit?

Hey Karl, Steve found you some 13 running board brackets. Read his post.

Steve, I'm almost convinced. A close up photo of the frame ends should clinch it.

I sent a response to your email Steve asking if the cross support tab was the thicker version that's what I'm looking for they do not look like the thicker ones in the pictures your sent

I personally cut these off the frame of a mid 13 with a flat rear cross member. They are available.

Move to top not a single person has found a set that fits what I want the lower tab should be 1/2 in the outer bolt hole should be 7/16 no one has submitted proof of this I don't care if you cut them off a 13 frame I'm looking for these specs specifically

I have a few in Beloit i will have to dig them out, and check them
