Hey shut your mouth, that thing is still around, Shane cuts a piece of Dom off of it every once in a while

I'm getting ready to use a piece of the square tube. I wasn't talking bad about it, Just reminiscing.

I would suggest attaching the rear support ring off the same cross member, to eliminate twisting against the adapter/tail

I am, it will be connected via 2 pieces of Dom under the atlas, back to the support ring and tied into the frame with 2 more bushings

 

[guffey24]

So I was wrong about advance adapters changing there output, appartently I got a bastard rear output that they can't reproduce
I thought about selling this support ring and having a new one made, I tossed around the idea of building one, then I saw a set of old stock TJ coils laying in the corner and had an idea, with a little work I made it work modifying the existing ring

 

[guffey24]

Finished up the crossmembers for the tranny mount and the atlas including the support ring

 

[guffey24]

Down for paint

I say that you strip it to bare metal and let it rust.
That way it matches your brothers rig!
Just sayin......
