Hard time finding transfomer L brackets?
« on: January 10, 2022, 10:20:47 am »
Need to replace the vertical mount L brackets for a salvaged OT.
These aren't just bent up, the metal has separated at the bend.



I thought this would be a more commonly available item, maybe I'm just missing them?
Worst case I will just get some sheet metal and whip out the jig saw, but I thought I would see if someone has a source.

A schematic, layout, and hi-rez pics are very useful for troubleshooting your amp. Don't wait to be asked. JUST DO IT!

Weber sells bell ends and standup brackets like your picture, their made for one of his PT’s but may or may not be the right size.
$10.30 for two bell covers and the stand-up brackets.
Under amp parts; then transformers; at Weber amp kits. Worth a shot, they have specs listed.
If it ain't broke, don't fix it.

I checked out the weber parts, those aren't going to fit my transformer unfortunately. I think the angle pieces sluckey recommended are the way to go. Thanks!
