Good brisket takes time.
I'm expecting the ORD delivery today. The other is from the E bay expected to be here Friday.
I'll try to squeeze in a few hours after school. I have to do a make up day Saturday because they cancelled on Tuesday.
Meanwhile I stopped by the local depot and got more MIG wire, new welding gloves , and some 40 grit flapper wheels.

Plan B
Plan B
looks like it will fit the plan much better
Also congrats on 2000 posts in your thread
Party on!
I took some flat bar and bent up a little mount for the adapter. If all goes well it it will mount to the front of the crossmember as shown here on the table.
It's snowing outside and I'm not used to the freezing cold so that's all I'ce got for now.
Looks sweet just like the imagination
At first it was Auto Correct, when I saw it I laughed out loud so I left it.was that on purpose?
I agree, thanks for the advise.
I pulled the Tcase back out today. I made quick work of it.
Here's a comparison of the 2 adapters.
hell yeah, so much better
I've got the shorty and it's hard for me to grasp the idea of dealing with the tall adapter lol

Short adapter installed
I got the short adapter installed today.
Now you can see how I plan to mount it.
I didn't realize the short adapter is .25" deeper than the tall one. I noticed when the support rod wouldn't fit.
I modified it so now it works.

Short vs tall adapter
I thought this was interesting.
My OEM tall adapter is 3.25" deep from flange to flange.

Support rod
I noticed when my support rod would no longer fit.
I figure the easiest thing to do is make the slot longer as shown above.

...so I cranked up Grandpa's old drill press.
It's funny when I'm using the Grandparents old tools I always hear their voice in my head giving me advise and saying things like:
"I'm glad somebody is getting use out of it", or "wipe down those tools before you put them away".
