The running gear i have in my 84 BII originally came from an 76 or 77 bronco. The PO bought the AA adapter to mate an np435 to the stock EB T-case.
So now i have this funky mount with 2 bushings that sit at an angle, unlike the other trans with a nice flat mount. I already have a new set of bushings.
I was wondering if anyone else has used this style of trans mount, and how they went about swapping it into an RBV.
I have considered:
1. buying a stock EB trans crossmember, and modifying to fit (hard to find so far)
2. build from scratch (which would take quite awhile for me, and this build is taking forever already)
3. buy aftermarket, and mod to fit.
#3 is looking like my best choice, but i am having a hard time finding a company that makes an upgraded version of a trans mount for an EB. Maybe I'm just not looking in the right places.
Anyone have some input? At this point, I would rather drop more coin into something that is almost ready to go. After this i get to start plumbing the motor in, and hear my baby run for the first time in a few years.
