Aux Battery Core Support Bracket E1TZ-10A705-A

[kramttocs]

Update: the two brackets are the same. I thought there was a slight angle mine didn't have but when comparing the photos more closely that isn't the case.

Looking for this bracket.

Pic of Gary's (the one I need):


vs the one I have that is wrong:



This is the 1980 style (Z bracket):


But I am wanting the 81/on style like Gary has.

Thanks!

Thanks! Left them a message. I found the 1980 one on there but somehow missed the 81

[salans7]

Hopefully they have it!

[kramttocs]

They did have it and were nice enough to send me some photos. Unfortunately it looks the same as mine. I guess the one I have and Gary's are the same and maybe Gary's is slanted in the slots (the edge you can't see). That's my only idea. I'll put some clips in the core support and see if slanting it is the solution.

Thanks David. That is the RH/Main battery one. I need a mirror image of that
After seeing the photo from NOS Parts it has to be something with my setup.

Let me go back through my pics.  I may have mine with a part number showing before I PC'd it.

[Gary Lewis]

I'm not finding a pic with the part number or even and ID #.  But I did find this pic which shows the main battery stay on the top and the aux battery stay on the bottom.

[kramttocs]

Much appreciated Gary! I couldn't find anything on mine either. I think it's flipped though:

Main: bottom. It steps down and is angled toward the fender
Aux: top. It steps up

Last question for you and them I may just make a z brace like the 1980. Could you take a photo a little further back showing the back(core support) edge? Wondering if I should just expect to angle it more than I am.

[Gary Lewis]

I can do that.  But how 'bout this one?

[kramttocs]

Thank you

[Gary Lewis]

Is that what you need?  Anything else?

[kramttocs]

That's exactly what I needed. Will figure something out or just leave it off.

[salans7]

Maybe I'm missing something, but I can't say I see much of a difference between the two brackets?

[ArdWrknTrk]

I think Gary's beadblasted one looks pretty much identical.

The black powdercoat is too difficult to discern on my phone.

[Gary Lewis]

Maybe this view will make it easier to see the differences.  I've cropped the other stuff out of the pic and rotated it so the stays are on the correct sides.  And you can see that the one on the left has holes that will angle it.  And the one on the right doesn't.




And in these pics you can see the difference.

[salans7]

I was referring to the driver's side 1980 bracket Scott has and the 1981+ bracket you have. I don't see a difference between the two.

[Gary Lewis]

If you mean these two brackets then I agree with you:

[salans7]

Yep, exactly.
