If you're talking about the 4 flanged pieces near the outside wheels, those are bearing blocks that fit in a slot cut into the 2x1. There's a little cam that is used to change the center-to-center distance between the sprockets in order to tension the chain. |
I meant the angle pieces highlighted in blue below, not the 973-style WCD bearing blocks.
