The mounting bracket for the 235 hits the side of the T-5. What have you guys done to fix this problem? Can I rework the bracket or do I have to go with a different set up? If so what works the best? I thought this swap was pretty straight forward...whew! | | | | | Joined: Feb 2008 Posts: 217 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Feb 2008 Posts: 217 | I think what you need to do is cut off the bolt bosses off the side of the bracket to where it is a smooth surface. That is what I had to do. Look up Cavebull from the "user list" at the top of this bar. He is around page 19 when you alphabetize the list. His photo journal has a t5 swap with great pics. You will see what I mean. | | | | | Joined: Nov 2008 Posts: 73 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Nov 2008 Posts: 73 | Wow this is fantastic. Thanks so much for the lead.
