I went with a GV manual carrier, so I have all steel, but I still have the original mount.  Well, time will tell...

Okay, Letter Man.  Add the silent E to Tim and whatcha get?  Time.

Well, Time is telling you now.  My mount is tweeked.  And that's just lower gears, bigger muds and a V6.  Where it used to break when aluminum, now it doesn't.  Somehting gotta be the weak link, and it's the mount.  I figured it would happen soon or later, but figured it would once I was locked up front.  But no yard I could find had an XL front pig when I did mine as they were quite new.

I plan on taking a spare mount and welding in some reinforcement to stiffen it.  Beefed Center Mount.

I put mine all together, and started adding diff fluid, and it came ruinning out on the floor!  There's a hole in the GV carrier - I have no idea what it's for - it's not threaded.  

It's the port for the air line for the GV's shit-on-the-fly differential.

Just keep waving that V6 flag in my face!  Whatcha got there, 140 HP?  I wish I had more than 96 pale, thin, and wheezing ponies at the front of my drivetrain!

Yeah, I can see fabbing up some kind of "snout mount" reinforcement for my rig...

Actually 170-175bhp now with the mods.  I can run 120+ on the level and still have pedal.  

Nice!


Oh ya, thanks for the info guys.  I still havent picked up the housing but hopefully I'll get around to it on the weekend.
