Default Need help finding a part

I need an upper fork bracket (BAD).
1976 Ironhead XLH. I think the bracket is the same for 1975-78.
Phone (334) 850-7676
Any help much appreciated.

I am not ignoring you. My buddy's mother just died sunday. I called him today and he is at his grandfather's funeral now that died saturday. Sorry but I didnt have the heart to ask him about the part. I will give him a few days. He had a front end for his 75 and needed rebuilt, so he bought another used complete front end. I am pretty sure he will part with the extra bracket, just got to give him some time.

That's understandable. Thanks for the update.
When you talk to him, find out much how much of that '75 tree he wants to part with. I might be interested in the whole thing.
