Help ID mystery brackets. Model T?

The one curved one fits my 27 steering column, but it has a bracket welded onto it, so don't know. The other two brackets sure look like a right hand and a left hand, but I can't see them as firewall to frame brackets. Some sort of body mounts? Or nothing T related. Just want to find a good home for them
Thanks in advance.

I think the two l-brackets are used to connect the front cross member to frame. Those would be R and L specific. I have no idea for the other piece.

The single part is the lower steering column dash clamp for a '26-'27

Thank you, Holmes and Watson. Steering dach clamp makes sense with my projects, but the TT frame brackets are a mystery how they got in my stash. I'll blast them and prime them and find a good home for them.
Thanks to all.

Unless I am missing something, I would think you would need to measure them before presuming they are TT. The angle brackets look the same as on the car.

Good point. I'll compare them to my 27 frame and my 20 frame before I represent them as TT

Was just reminded I never reported back to bring closure to a thread which always bothered me on forums. So, anyways, this is definately a TT bracket which connect the front cross member to the TT frame. Rivets to the backside of the cross member and up the side of the frame rail. The similar brackets on the two T frames I have access to have the bracket riveted to the backside of the front cross member but the side frame rail sits on top of the arm of the bracket, so the T brackets have an additional bend to the frame mounting arm
Similar in overall dimensions, but the T brackets have an additional bent wing to them.
