I left the mounting plate attached to the frame members. Previously, the no=
n-O/D
bracket supporting the tail shaft rested in a larger bracket bolted to the=20=
rear
set of holes on the mounting plate. Having changed nothing in the interim,=20=
it
appears that the mounting point for the new overdrive bracket (which came w=

the overdrive) is further aft than the mounting point for the tailshaft bra=
cket
it replaced.
