EV-100 wheel pilot pedestal bracket too large

EV-100 wheel pilot pedestal bracket too large
I am installing an EV-100 onto an older Edson pedestal whose diameter is smaller than the curvature in the supplied pedestal bracket.

I have drilled the holes and fitted it temporally but I need to find a better solution.

I assume that the bracket base is not bendable to conform to the pedestal so what are my options?

Thx.

Don.

There are only two styles of pedestal brackets available. The curved or a straight. I can only recommend that the base be bent to conform to your pedestal diameter.

OK, if there is not a pedestal bracket that fits my pedestal then I plan to wrap the pedestal with Saran wrap and mould an epoxy paste between the bracket and the pedestal. The epoxy will stick to the bracket but not to the pedestal. I will let you know if this works for me.
