Default Yank 4L60E Crossmember???

I need to relocate the TA off the tranny. I got a Spohn TA and am currently using a poly tranny mount.

Yank has their Crossmember w/ TA relocation mount for $150 right now.
BMR is $250

The Yank is non adjustable, but what I am looking for is to simply get the arm off the tailshaft and keep the same geometry. Does anybody have any experience with the Yank piece? Will it work with the poly mount and how's the fitment? I'm not sure if the extra $100 is worth the adjustability.

Figure I would get this done when the 12 bolt goes in.

I had an older one from Yank that was adjustable.
You can turn it into an adjustable with the mount-
strap as a template and a few minutes with the
drill, if need be. The front adjustability is what you
will need to tune the suspension reaction for launch
(rear TA adjustment is for pinion / driveline angle
but for launch you want to mess with torque arm
& LCA angles; pinion is just for truing up afterward).

Thanks, Yeah I am running at just about -2* right now. I'd prefer to keep the pinion set at that. So if i used that crossmember and changed nothing else it should not adversely effect my current launch right, assuming it's a near stock location?
