One of the reasons Doug first gave for not being able to locate these, was
the state of his garage since he never throws anything out...ME TOO. When I
started digging around on my basement workbench, I found a pair of 1" x 1"
angle brackets that looked like they were made for the job. The one side of
the "L" had a hole the same diameter as the holes in the underside of the
bumper and the other side othe "L" had an oval opening that will allow for
some adjustment of the plate....done!
Thanks for your suggestions.
Cheers
Keith
