I bought a crossmember setup for dual cases and mounting into the stock bolt holes, but I just realized that my adapter is the MCO8 R10, so the rear case is rotated 10 deg.  :smack:. Is there a tcase to crossmember mount that anyone sells that can bolt up the rear rotated section of the case to a crossmember thats setup for no rotation? I have one heavy duty mount that i can use for the front reduction housing section, will that handle the torque and weight of the dual cases if i run just that alone if i cant find another mount setup for a rotated case?
Thanks

front range off road sells a crossmember for the rotated adaptor

Dont use one mount you will indeed end up regretting it, Buy a cross member that is set up for the rotated rear case or build one, dual cases need dual mounts.

Im not a fan of the Front Range offroad crossmember, so im just going to cut a rectangle where the mounting holes are in the crossmember for the mount, position it at the right angle so it bolts to the rear case correctly, and weld the rectangle in to place and add some plate if needed

This seems to be the issue with the fror crossmember, looks like the tcase wants to twist and eventually will
