what kind of crossmembers are you guys running for your t-case/tranny mount?

i need to build a new one with a little more drop and i am throwing out the busing at the ends idea probably (my current design)

anyway, the tranny mount will need to sit about 1-2" below the framerail so what would you do? the tranny mount also sits a little to the drive side.

if i could solid mount it or get a shorter tranny bushing i could have a flat bottom which would be sweeeet!!

why are you discounting the bushings at the end?

it causes too much movement and my front cv hits against the tranny tunnel..

also, i think the extra movement is making my front output seal poop out every time i wheel it :mad2: :mad2: :mad2: :mad2: :mad2: :mad2: :mad2: :mad2:

i am mad (hence all the mad "smilies")


make sense??????

movement from front to back or side to side? are you using rubber or poly?

the bushing assemblies from rl... caleb has them too

movement from side to side (and up + down i think)
there is no room for movement back to front etc
