I seem to have misplaced the U strap for my JD2 model 3 bender die that is 2 inch O.D. I tried to make one but can't seem to get the hole in the right place. If anyone has one and wouldn't mind taking some measurements for me I would really appreciate the help. I tried to swag it by going off of my 1.75 die, but failed miserably.
Thanks in advance!

What measurements are you after?

2 3/4 from inside edge of bend to inside of pin.
4 1/2 over all length
7/8 hole for pin
9/16 from bottom of "u" to outside edge of hole for pin
1 7/16 to inside edge of hole for pin.

That's a tape measure and an eyeball but aught to get you close

Thank you very much! I appreciate the help, getting a new one is like catching a unicorn evidently!
Have a good one!
