I have now read through multiple threads on here arguing wether to use this or not. I hear your argument to not use the mount but I see in your photo that you have a crossmember that runs under both your trans and your tcase. I only have a crossmember under the trans. This means that if I don't use the frame mount with my Tcase the only thing holding my 205 in there would be the 8 bolts to the spacer. Is it okay to have the Tcase hanging there in space by only the eight bolts? Suggestions? Thanks!
Yes you will be fine just using the crossmember with the adapter bolted to it,that is the way they came from about 1973 on up, no side mount
