Bracket – RA1061347

Providing the fixed mounting point that holds a component in its correct position, this Raymond bracket ties that component to the truck frame or a subassembly so it stays located under vibration and load. A bracket carries no working function of its own; its value is that it puts and keeps another part exactly where the truck's design intends it to sit.

As a structural part, it is replaced when the original is cracked, bent, or corroded, any of which lets whatever it carries shift out of alignment, loosen, or load its fasteners unevenly. On equipment that vibrates continuously, a compromised bracket tends to worsen quickly once it starts to move. Installing the correct replacement restores a solid, properly located mount for the component it supports.

This is original Raymond hardware for the assembly it was cataloged to, so the hole pattern and profile match the bracket being replaced. Match those mounting features to the bracket coming off, since a bracket is formed and drilled for one location and its hole pattern is what lands the component in the right place.
