Be advised there are at least 2 types of early Brinly sleeve hitches and maybe even a 3rd.
One has a gentle curve and one has 2 "kinks" in the center of the curve. In both cases, the main frame is made/bent from one piece using no welded joints other than where the pipe tube and center link are added.
The bolts and nuts are 5/8" and use bolts that are 2" long with a jam nut.
I have also seen differences of at least 1/4" in the height of the yoke on different Brinly implements, in which case, one may have to forgo the use of the draft plate.
There are no gussets or cross braces like the homemade piece pictured above, however the measurements should be correct.
The inner lower hitch link is/was an IH/CCC piece.
Here's one version. on with and one w/o the draft plate
