Default Australian LP1 R.R. Crowbar Mounting Bkt.

Does anybody have an original crow bar mounting bracket for the right rear of the Australian LP1 Bren carrier, that I might get some good photos, and dimensions of please?
Thanks in advance.

I guess it might seem that way, but there is a lot I am short of.
I just show people, to try and make it easier for others to do their projects.
Some people hoard heaps of stuff, and never let on.
I'm still looking for a good Canadian steering wheel. Ford of Canada made 28,000 Universal carriers, and it seems, no spares?

Thankyou David, It is not the same as the Universal.
Graeme, thankyou also for the reply. Sorry no, thats the LP2 or LP2A.
I am after the one on the Australian LP1 (riveted carrier,160 were built)
It is the same as the Bren MkII, which was the pedecessor to the Universal Carrier.
