Hey, Tony. We have a ton of pivot bars that are similar to this, but I'm not sure what to recommend, exactly. It's also hard to make out your precise dimensions from just a tape measure. Can you measure the distance between the center of the first hole and the front tip of the pivot bar, then tell me what you get? If I know that measurement, I'm confident that I can find you a good match.

In the meantime, you can see our entire selection of pivot bars here.

In response the measurements are as follow:
tip to first hole 11/16"
tip to second hole 1 /11/16"
overall length 3 1/8 "
width 1/4 "

Can you confirm the distance between the tip and the center of the first hole? Looking at your photos, it looks like it's larger than 1". I don't think it's 11/16".

It depends which end you arte calling the tip. The tip to me is the pointy end. If you are saying the flat end is the tip then the measurement is 1 3/8 "
The distance between hole center is 1"

Yes, when I refer to the front tip, I mean the front tip that goes into the pivot shoe. The back tip doesn't really impact how the pivot bar functions or installs.

So to clarify, the first hole (assuming the flat end is the front) is 1-3/8"? That definitely gives us more options. Start by looking at our 26-452. The front hole on this pivot bar has the same 1-3/8" hole placement. As long as that's the same, I'm confident that this will work as a replacement.
