A833 Trans jack adapter build

[Flint]

I have an old Blackhawk trans jack that I would like to make a specific mount to fit my A833 4spd.

Anyone got pics of ones they have built?

What I've done for transmissions & diffs is make a V-shaped "cradle", since they're both kind of rounded at the bottom.
Can be made of anything from wood to Simpson ties to whatever.
Securing the clumsy & heavy item you're cradling so it can't roll off is very important, obviously.

Also have some pieces of all thread or bolts with the heads cut off, in the four threaded bosses of the bell that trans attaches to, to help guide it on straight. Very old tech tip but works well. Cuts down on the wrestling.

I have some studs / cutoff bolts.
