    Looking for a picture too. The service manual shows a bracket that bolts on the T-Case that the pivot bolts into. Can any one clarify this.

    Here is a pic of my set up. V6 with a D18 t-case.

    First the transfer case mount. It is a ball, that the bell crank turns on threaded into the t-case.

    The silver thing is my overdrive, so if you don't have one that would be the back of the t-case.

    Here is the frame side.

    Mocked parts in tonight, ball pivot will go into T-Case and other bracket on Frame. It looked like my frame bracket will be on a 45 degree angle. There are several holes drilled in the frame where the bracket mounts, do not if the holes in the frame are to adjust bracket. Thanks for all the info guys

    Don't understand the 45 degree angle. I would think that you would want this jack shaft at a 90 degree angle to the frame. What Engine, transmission, and t-case are you using?

    I think he's talking about the hat shaped bracket holding the ball stud falls at 45 degrees rather than parallell to the frame rail. I have seen this bracket at an angle before. Just as long as the jack shaft is 90 degrees to the frame, and level.

    That is correct, when mocking it up, thats what it took to get the 90 degrees
