    Would anyone happen to know the part number for the mounting brackets that are used by the OEM tubes? I bent mine slightly when offroading and want to have a Plan b if I'm unable to successfully straighten them out.

    I've tried googling for them but the mounts I'm coming up with look a lot thinner and are L shaped, whereas these are approx 1/8" thick and symmetrically shaped (two angled plates held together by welded plates across the top of them) whereas the other ones I'm seeing are a single piece of ~1/16 or so bent metal.

    A picture is worth a 1000 words... otherwise we're all just taking random guesses.

    These, thank you!

    The bend is very mild but enough to annoy me slightly that I want to yank them off and straighten them out with a shop press, I can't tell what metal they are at glance so unsure if a BFH would be a good idea until I test them with a magnet.

    this,,, there are several,, if not many, different types. And I would guess there is a good chance they are sold as whole kits only, as they have them made for them.

    There are a bunch of different replacement mounting brackets available from the parts channel but none of them have photos :(
