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.photo (3).jpg

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?

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:
