3c Horn mounting blades

[jotajoe]

Good morning fellas..

I bought these o/e Voxbell mounting blades from Malcolm recently and I'm sorry if this is a dozy question  :-\ but which end attaches to the horn and which to the main body...One end of the multistrip blades has a bush through it...

Just looked at mine and the round "bit" is on the frame.

I'm not sure that the bush goes to the frame?  :-\

Isn't there a stepped boss on the horn bolt? That's where the bush goes. My reasong for this is: When the multi plates are mounted solid to the frame, there aren't going to move during shaking or resinance when the horn is actuated, but, the nut at the horn can't be done up super tight (in comparison to where bolted firm at the frame), therefore any flex, therefore forward and aft movement of the multiplates, at the horn end, could loosen the nut and the horn would then drop it's head like a flacid deck.
