Early to late the material and construction changed from a cast steel peice
to a bent steel bar with a section of threaded rod

When?

Is there a reason other than manufacturing cost?

I would tend to believe that the bent steel rod is stringer than the cast piece. IDK if this has anything to do with the change though.
