Getting ready to install in a medium duty (class-7) dump truck.
I have never seen one installed. So i am alittle lost.
It is divorced / It has mounting ears at rear, the cross member holds these ears and a disk type E-brake.
My big question is: What holds up/steadies the front of trans ?
A: modify input/output no u joints just straight coupeling and hang it off the rear of main ?
B: use a carrier bearing close to input?
C: Fab a front cross member and a mount for input flange ?
D: It will be fine hanging from to rear only ?
E: ??????

Pictures are always very helpfull :)
