Re: Tranny / tcase problem

IIRC, there is also a rod (for lack of a better description) that attaches to the side of the T Case and ties into the back of the block at one of the bell housing bolts. This should give some support to the T case while allowing the engine, transmission and transfer case to move as one which takes the stress off of the bell housing and the trans to T case adapter.

FWIW, I run a divorced 205 and have not had to deal with the issues that you are asking about but have read much of the arguments for and against the side mount. If I were to run a married set up as you are, I'd run the rod support and ditch the side mount. Just my .02$.
