When I first looked at your picture, I thought you were missing a big cast bushing that goes into the U-shaped bracket and the lifting linkkage should hook to. Then I realized that is probably one of the differences between the 3-bar and 4-bar rakes. I think the eccentic of the 4-bar rake is also the bushing, so the lifting linkage and eccentric adjusting crank linkage bolt to the same place on the eccentric.
From a picture I have, it looks like the eccentric should have a spacer, then the crank linkage, then the lifting linkage. I'm not sure about the spacer, which may be cast into the eccentric itself. Do whatever it takes to get the linkage all in line without binding.
It appears your real problem at this point is the lack of the right U-shaped bracket. The bushing end of the eccentric should be a reasonably close fit in the bracket, to prevent front-back motion of the reel shaft. Maybe old has the proper bracket on his parts machine. If all else fails, you could probably fabricate a round spacer that could take up the extra space.
