Do you need 1 or 2?
I have a couple that the center holes are distorted a little, they have rust pitts. But very usable with a little handi work and a ball pein hammer.
That is my listing on ebay. I can not remove the extra from ad because of the pictures show them with ad.
I can take a picture later if your interested?

The nuts for the slide bolts tighten against these. They aren't shown in the diagram, but maybe that's what's missing?
