Trail gear sells them and I was thinking on buying them. Any one run them or are they a bad idea?

I have Calmini's T case cradle which is pretty stout. I'm running RR poly mounts right now and the bushings are wearing out and the bolts egg shape the holes.

I would say solid mount the sucker but at least tie the rear of the case into the cradle.. I would sell you our bushing but I stopped producing them until I get a Uretane MFG to get there head out of ther ASS.

I'm alive, I've spent the last two seasons running Formula Toy. I'm still building and stuff. As for a Zuk, no. I sold my the one I was building last year. I've thought about starting another one, for now I've got a 4 runna.:p

i'm a fan of the solid-mounted divorced t-case. caveat: the factory mounts that are welded to the frame NEED to be reinforced. box 'em and gusset them up so they don't tear from the frame. i've found trouble with this even with soft mounts after ye gear swap.

Found this picture in about 3 minutes using an internet available program called a SEARCH engine.

Search engines must not be available on the Hawaiian interweb though:(

Go to Calminis sight and they have a picture of it.

I already braced the three frame mounts so it should be good to go.
