Here are the measurements that one of our guys came up with. YMMV. He used 3/4" wide x 1/8" thick flat steel, with these ''approximate'' dimensions: | |||
*A: ~70mm | |||
*B: ~30mm (lower corner needs to be rounded as described below) | |||
*C: ~15.7mm (bolt hole diameter: 6.4mm) | |||
*The hole in the center where post would go through is ~16mm | |||

It can also be done without a welder -- use a long bolt through the strut to hold the new bracket into place. You may need to trim the bottom of the strut if you use the bolt; there isn't a lot of clearance where the bolt head goes. | It can also be done without a welder -- use a long bolt through the strut to hold the new bracket into place.
