While replacing the frame is an option
Repair and extension of the frame is a very practical solution, if the original shortening was not a butcher job. I say this if a good replacement frame is not readily available.
Can you provide a couple of photos of where the frame was shortened? Not having a replacement frame for my C60L I ended up doing extensive repairs including complete replacement of the inner layer of the frame. If your frame was shortened to the rear of the inner frame than a very strong repair can be done. I'll take or dig out the photos of how this can be easily done. Most heavy steel fabricators and bend up the 1/4in frame sections you will need. As to the bracket, on my HUP this was fitted with a spring that provided tension on the draw strap for the canvas hatch cover. Cheers Phil
