Looks like I ended up misplacing my transmission brace at some point, though luckily it appears to be pretty simple to make a replacement. Can anyone tell me where the forward end joins? It's shown here (part #28):



I can figure out the transition side, so if I get some steel tube and figure out where the other end goes, I'll be good to go.

Goes to a bracket on the right axle tube.  Just happen to have the waggie up on the lift.

Just a correction that is an axle brace not a transmission brace. The early Eagles did not have it.
'83 Eagle SX4. 92 4.0 fuel injected, T5, NP229, '01 Dana 35 with Detroit Truetrac 3.54 gears.

'87 Jeep Comanche. Renix 4.0 liter, AX15, NP242, HP Dana 30 and factory Dana 44 rear axle.

Talk about lucky timing! Thanks for taking that pic for me—it's exactly what I needed. I have the front axle out right now, which is prob why I wasn't immediately seeing anywhere that looked like the right attachment point  ;D
Thanks again!
