Default Problem with Horn brushes

Last week I posted a post on how to rebuild my Spartan horn . I received great feedback . I took it apart today to find the brushes positioned on a angle. After looking further I realized that the plate that holds the brush holders is warped. The horn adjuster is about 1/8-1/4 inch from the plate so it wasn't turned in to far , I think I can replace this plate but I cannot locate one in my books. What would cause this. It doesn't look or smell like it I burnt, looked almost new inside Again Thanks for all your help Billy
