Make one? I just did but if you can't weld cut the metal yourself and get a local company to weld it for you. I fitted a sprung idler wheel from my original donor to my home made bracket.

Sorry the paint does not look too good but I had to slightly alter it the other week and the paint was too thick and it shows. Now on a 'to do' list!

My welding was not too good either still the public don't look there!

I was in a mad panic to get the build finished so I chopped up the P38 bracket. I cut along a rib and then buffed the cut roundy. It actually cam out pretty well after a lick of paint.
