The bracket I need is the one that runs below the platform and mounts to the boat. It's heavily rusted out. Sort of L shaped. I was thinking of fabricating something, but maybe folks here know a source for such parts?

On mine it's supported by a straight arm that goes from underneath the outter edge of the platform on about a 45* angle down to the transom...it wouldn't be too hard to find a length of SS tubing (pipe), cut it to length, flatten both ends, drill holes for screws in both flat ends and screw 'em in place...
