Need: steering to frame bracket for 1926-27 Fordor/Commercial Chassis

I'm restoring a 1927 Model T Ford commercial vehicle (on a T, not TT chassis). Been working on it for a dozen years now. In trying to install the steering column, I find that the steering column bracket at the bottom of the steering column does not fit into the frame - the angle is wrong.

I have the correct commercial firewall/dash (3634-L as shown on the 1928 Ford Parts List), a correct 1927-27 frame, and a correct 1926-27 steering column.

In looking at the Ford Parts List of 1928 (showning all the 1926-27 changes) I see that there is a special steering column bracket for the 1926-27 Fordor and Chassis, numbered 3539E. Although the 1926-27 Ts take a different bracket (3539D) than the earlier cars (3539B), it appears that the right one for the Fordor and chassis has a different bracket even from that.

So now, to move forward on my car, I'm in search for a 3539E bracket. I don't even know what I'm looking for - what is different about it from the "regular" 1926-27 steering bracket?

Any ideas or help would be appreciated. Andy Ott
