Corner casting measurements way off, Help!!

[571COALTON]

OK, dont laugh, but here is a picture of the corner castings that I ordered. As you can see, I was way off on the measurements. Can someone tell me how to measure for the correct ones, or better yet, send me a link to the correct ones I need to buy.

I found one for my old Harris that is a perfect match here http://www.pontoonspecialists.com/c-25-corner-cap-casting.aspx Your going to have to get the correct measurements. Measure another casting, not the deck area where it's missing.

We did measure the other castings, and I cant find nothing to match everything is too short. Is there a special way that you are supposed to measure them?

You mean even this one is too small?

Only "special way" to measure is as the link above describes. I had to find on close, then mod it with saw, grinder, dremel, & drill.

Best of luck on your search.

Its not so much the wrong size but wrong angle--The new is a 90 degree corner- Looks like you need a 90 degree sweep if that makes sense? Don't really know any other way to put it.
The link snowfish posted looks right - Bet if you call them they will know what you need-

thanks, I printed that out to take home to show the hub. When we measured, it is 18" from corner to corner going around the outside of the curve

A sweep 90 has a wider radius than a standard 90:
