DIY4X 205 T Case Mounting Kit

[sponsoredbydad]

So seeing as I started this discussion I thought I'd better show how I decided to remedy it. It has been a couple years now and I have not broken any more tail pieces.

Is there a brace kit made for the 203?

Smoked 1 TH350, smoked a couple synchros in 465, couple clutches in same 465 and 1 diff lock in a 623G scraper that was not my fault. I called the rental company and told them it was not right as it bounced my head off the glass when it disengaged and they said they had nobody available to fix it and to just run it. So I did. Grenaded that f--ker and after that they listened when I called.

Okay, just hear me out here. I am not worried about the twist or torque in the drivetrain. It's all going in pretty much the same direction so it's like ehhhh... But a weight support for that heavy ass 203 on the end of the transmission, that has always concerned me. Is there a bracket that helps to take some of the weight off of the bolts to the transmission tail shaft bolts/adapter area?

I've had similar concerns. Is there a bracket to support that behemoth 203's weight?

I did the TMR mount.

Do you have a picture of how it's mounted and supports the 205?

@Raggedy_Ann and I used a friends shop, I stole the idea from the internet and changed it up a bit.

It gets abused regularly.

That’s the rear mounting bracket for the NWF triple cable shifters.

It still has a few K5 parts- frame, hood, radiator support, firewall and a section of rear floor. Here’s a few pics:
