    I'd be interested as long as they're based on the 89/90 setup and have a lowered or raised(so the LCA points down more) Ball joint.

    WOW! I was thinking I'd have to build one of these myself, then this thread shows up! Now I just have to decide between it or going to SDAC....

    1. Go to SDAC. 2. Save for a few months to get K-frame. Problems solved and everyone is happy.

    Thanks, I think I have the mount I need now. I'll let you know.

    Unfortunately, I don't think it will be any easier. Trans removal may require lowering the k-frame.

    In my OMNI, I always pull the K-frame before pulling the trans. It's SOOO much easier. Piece of cake really.

    Had the trans in/out 5 times in 3 evenings last summer when I was playing with different clutches and driving it to/from work each day.
