Jack,
When I got my Lockheed unit from Healey Surgeons I did not get a bracket.
Instead, they included instructions for turning the old Girling brackets
upside down, drilling a couple of holes (as I recall, I don't remember what
else, maybe nothing), and using the old brackets to hold the new unit in
place. Sorry I don't have more details, but it has worked without incident
for three years now. There may have bend a bend involved, anyone else done
this?
