I'd appreciate some help with obtaining some the correct measurements so I can fab up some missing mounting hardware.

I've obtained the 4 missing side steps for my 109, but it appears I am missing some brackets. I have located the 4 mounting holes that hang each side step.

Front steps: From this pic, I see where the rear brace might have attached to the frame outrigger with 2 rivnuts.

Q1: Was there a "L shaped" drop bracket that met up with the rear brace?
Q2: If this is the correct brace location? It is about 30deg from the main mounting bracket (I would have assumed a 90d angle for this support). This seems unstable at such a sharp angle.

Rear steps: I have located two drilled holes in the frame outrigger where a drop bracket might have been located and met up with the rear brace.

Q3: Is there a missing "L shaped" drop bracket too?
Q4: What are the approx measurements?

I'm making a leap of faith that all 4 rear brace bars are the same length and bends (I'll be fabricating 3 more).

Thanks!
