Yesterday I removed the brake cable bracket remnant of the end attached to the 1943 truck spring and I notice it was folded over doubling the thickness. I looked more closely again at the 1944 remnant and it too had been folded at the spring end and therefore that bracket was the same thickness as the 1943 bracket. On that basis anyone recreating this bracket could make it from 16 gauge steel with the length of the fold over exactly 1". I can also confirm the spring bolt hole is 13/32" diameter and the clamp bolt hole is 9/32" diameter. the center of the spring bolt hole is 1/2" from the end and the center of the clamp bolt hole is 3/8" from the end. the flat end at the clamp area is 3/4" long. With Tony's 3-1/4" BC of the holes and 3/4" wide steel that should be enough info for anyone to replicate it. This means my suggestion that there was a thickness difference between the A and B part is not necessarily correct so whatever is the difference is still yet to be determined. Cheers
