Need Help finding Sdlbg Suprt Brkt

I just discovered I've got a broken left saddlebag support bracket. It's the bracket that bolts to left side of the fender vertically and attaches the saddlebag support rail on the bottom with two bolts. It sheared off. I think the part number is 901718-79C, but I'm not positive on that. I'm having trouble locating one, and I was wondering if anyone out there has one and would be willing to part with for it a reasonable fee. I'd really appreciate any help. I'm in Montana, and sometimes it's difficult to find parts. Thanks

There's an aftermarket one that is thicker than the HD one & also cheaper, I got one from Eastern Performance. There's also a repair kit on ebay, there was a thread on it a week or 2 ago, it had a link to it, I'd recommend the E P replacement one.

Thanks, I'll check it out. And I'll try and find the thread from a few weeks back. Appreciate it.

WCSJ55, That's interesting, appears to be a fragile item. Although this one has gone a long time (just short of 90K)

DTTJ Glide, I'd love to get the part# from Eastern Performance if it's thicker or stronger than OEM. I can't seem to find it on their web site. Any one else out there happen to have a part number?
