I searched and looked at the pics of spicer's NP205 and I had already thought about using the little ear on the bottom of the case for the left side mount as the top mount is crammed up into the floorboard. I was wondering though if anyone knew why he used the additional brace on the round cover plate? I didn't know if it was something he did initially or found out he needed it later on. Seems like that ear would be strong enough. I am thinking about dropping the stock cross member an inch or so to give the front output a little more room. With it dropped down through the stock crossmember the yoke seems really close. I already test fitted it, and the short shaft and the rear won't have to be modded. The front shaft is too short though. Should be in tommorow if all goes well and the rain holds off (tired of laying under that thing in the rain seems the run off from the truck always finds my crotch).
