As you did ask for options, I will offer one. I am considering the fact that your truck is not stock so what I suggest will (should) work for you if you choose to go that route.

I have included two photos of an earlier spare bracket assembly. It will work on your '41, again, if you so choose.
I would hazard a guess and say Ford went to that welded bracket during 1940 as it was much cheaper to produce and install.
