? for anybody using -R10 TC adapters
« on: Mar 29, 2007, 09:00:03 AM »
what do you all like best for crossmember?  i like the standard marlin crossmember b/c if you come down on the cases the weight goes mostly to the frame and its a pretty simple install.  i know there are benefits to the FROR style with torque of the motor, but I'm really not worried, maybe i should be.  I was thinking if i went to the FROR style i could do my own skid/flatbelly thing.

what do you guys think or recommend.

thanks,
Chris

I'm not entirely sure, but the Marlin crossmember will not work with the R10 units. :dunno:

I spent $60 and got the transfer case center section and built the rest.
for a skid plate I just made one out of 1/4" steel.

make your own skidplate.  it's not going to hurt the t-case if you come down on the skid.
