I used what was there after I cut the pull handle off. I think the pics show how I did it pretty good. what do you think...
once I got the 90* bend in it , I had to heat and twist the bracket (pic3)
I'll start on the retainer clip next. but really not needed. if I have a plow or blade on it , the weight will pull the lift bracket forward anyway.
I think this is a good mod if someone buys a pump and the PO doesnt give you all the parts. I dont think it looks too cobbed up..
