I’ve lost the two bracket pieces that support the front end of the brake slave cylinder on a 1971 Series III E-type. I can’t find any supplier who has part # C32834.
Do you know of a supplier who does have this part?
I found this post from the archive and note it was posted 5 months ago. It made me realize, however, that I do not have the support piece David Tonello showed in his photo. I have two questions:
is this support piece really necessary, or does the servo support the slave cyl ok?
This should be a relatively easy part to make. First make a cardboard template, transfer the template to a piece of steel or aluminum and then bend it up in a vice and drill the holes.
My Series III is in pieces amidst a near-full restoration and I have easy/ready access to this item.

I can take photos or measurements if you need them. For an item with this peculiar shape, maybe a clay impression would work best.
If you opt to make your own piece, I took some measurements & photos – hope they help. The decimal measurements were taken with a digital micrometer; the fractional measurements with a tape measure’.
It was hard to measure the lengths around the radii – best guesses on the diagram. I measured from the start of the curve (radius) to a clear edge
