Matthew,
        Should be a bracket on the rear end (not the one at the center, that
is to locate
the emergency brake rod) and another one just above the frame on one side.
On my Tiger II the rod connects to a bracket on the drivers side frame.
I have heard (but not confirmed) that the earlier Tigers connected the rod
to the
passenger side.  As far as I know, all Tigers used panhard rods to locate
the rear axle.  The bracket at the frame typically fails at the weld
and many of us have had to reweld the bracket.
