cross member question

[Mainer7]

Does anyone know if the advanced adapters transmission crossmember will fit on and '86 split T-case?
I'm refering to the one that uses the 6 bolts on the back of the TC...it looks like it will, but I don't have one to actually try it out..

thanks

here's a pic, i hope (from BTB products)

Just talked with AA and it will fit the split case with cutting welding grinding, etc. So, I guess for me, it won't work out.

won't anything fit with a little cutting, welding, and grinding?

Are you trying to mount a late model split case into a 40?

My same ?

If you're using a split case, than you're using a FJ60 tranny, 4 or 5 speed, no? If so, you'd already have plenty of support from underneath the tranny, with the 4 bolts of the stock mount, which go into the cast iron housing. Why then consider bolting ANYTHING into the aluminum T-case?

Mark,

I was asking because of my ongoing quest for knowledge about putting the H55F and late model split case in my '78 40. So I would not nec. have the stock mount underneath the tranny...

I saw these and thought it might be a cleaner way to go into my 40.

Where do you get stock mounts?

Thanks,

Yes, a late model case into a '78 40. I was able to use stock trans. crossmember/brackets that were from some type of 40 style not sure which.
I had to trim off 2 tiny bits from the part that attaches to the underside of the transmision. I've some pictures but not the best...
