One of the narrow (5/16") pieces is slipped onto the torque tube, and brazed to it. This piece acts as a stop, to prevent the torque tube assembly from moving forward. The 1" long piece is brazed to a 13ga flat strip that will get anchored to the floor. And the third piece (5/16" long) is slipped onto the torque tube, with the other 2 pieces in place, and riveted to the torque tube, to act as a retainer. (see marked-up drawing detail) Bill C.
