Thank for restoring my confidence in this method of motor mounting mike!
Thanks finnster for the info. I will prob just run the steel spur then...
I didnt like the idea of mounting the CD to my skid plate and as i am not using an FLM Chassis it would make it difficult anyway. I would probably mount the motor in a similar way but mount it to the TVPs via braces or attatch the cd mount to a plate and attatch the plate to the braces.
Has anyone got any pictures of what the universal mount looks like from underneath and where the screw holes are located?
Finnster GCM were going to make my custom dogbones for me. Im quite happy with the ones they use with their DB-17 xxl conversion and they have held up without any signs of distortion so far. Here is their site....
