Yeah Charlie, something like that but mine's much simpler, made from 1/4" plate steel. About 6"x6" with a 1.5" flap folded down at 45 degrees, welded to each side, bottom tube. Then a mating piece, tapering in to about 4" under the tranny with the 45's folded up. Two holes in the outers, two slots on the inner give fore & aft adjustment, about 2" as I recall. When the bolts are tight it's solid as a rock.
The important thing is for the center section to be removable and wide enough to let the tranny drop for maintenance. Also, I don't like anything riding on the top of the frame where the body sits - just another interference to deal with.Roger
Enjoy the little things in life, and you may look back one day and realize that they were really the BIG things.
