IH 1066 Suitcase Weight Lock bar

Hello,
Have not used the forum in some time but recently purchased a 1973 IH 1066 and do not have the suitcase weight lock bar or angle iron. I have a 12 hole extended bracket that does not require the spacers and 12 big handle 100lb weights. What size is the factory size angle iron that I need for the lock bar? width and thickness? I already have the lock cams.
Thanks in advance!!!
 
I am really tempted to mess with you and say it's metric, but really, all you need to do is measure the slot hole in the weights and get a piece of angle that fits. On length make it the same as the width of the weight bracket.
 
Thanks for the reply . I know it's not rocket science and I will probably never fly this thing to the moon even though it runs pretty good at least without some serious help.
I can make any size angle work from 1 1/2" to 2 1/4" and any thickness up to 3/8" but since I am going to make one myself I would like to make it as close to the factory one as possible. Therefore I was trying to find out the actual measurement on the correct factory size of the angle iron and the thickness. already have the measurements for the length and where to drill the holes from the weight bracket.
