Partz on order...
Update on my post in this thread; I received the parts I ordered from Bratton's to install the later model '31 steering column support.

I must say I am very disappointed (and a little pi$$ed off) in the finish and fit of the parts . The finish of the support bracket is extremely rough and the threaded holes in the bottom are rusty and not threaded far enough in to tighten the clamp (see pictures). More crap Hecho en Chine. Buyers beware...





You can't see in the pictures but I also had to grind down the clamp screw heads as they are to big to fit in the holes in the clamp. The lock washers? No way will they work.
