This change obsoletes the old design AA- 5256-BR bracket, as they cannot be used on frames on which the new adapter has been assembled.

To install the new adapter on an old frame, it will be necessary to drill a it” hole in the side member 1-h” below and I.” to rear of hole for upper bolt (see Fig. 866). The adapter can then be bolted to the frame, using the same bolts, nuts and cotters that were used to fasten AA-5256-BR to frame.

Bolt A-20953, nut A-21745 and cotter A-23534 are used to assemble A-5256-C bracket to the new adapter.
