53-55 are a bit different on the driver's side due to the gas tank mounting. The battery on the 56 is a different shape than the 53-55 so the forward bracket on the 56 is a bit different as well. If the only problem you have with yours is that it is "bent" then why not just straighten it?

Got a blacksmith club in your area? ABANA has contact info for most of them. All you probably need is big heat and bigger vice.
