This is off the drawing in Ford Tractor Engineering files. Only thing I can add is that Dearborn Motors released this supplier drawing in May of '48. The version you bought and show above(prior post) must be a later version yet, and may finally have enough bolts to keep it from failing from fatigue at the tabs. I can just visualize how much they must have been twanging (vibration) around when the tractor was running and the gun was in it. This may be why you don't see many of the earlier versions; they may all have failed. Also, the drawing says they were to be painted Ford chassis black.
