I added 2 more crossmember mounts right near the tunnel .
Mine should not flex much at all now.

SJH.....How do you adjust your pinion angle?
I made a few sets of shackles with different angles. I can swap them out pretty quick if needed.
I'll probably make a jig for this arm and make another one at the end of the seaon. I have some ideas on how to make it better and with a very quick pinion angle adjuster.
Thanks Fandango!

I'd be inclined to make the shackles one piece since when you get on the brakes the torque arm force changes direction and pushes down on the shackles. What is that blue tubing running next to the shackles there?
**** im impressed.
