February 18, 201213 yr Author comment_381127 I know, but with what I went through with this car, I cannot deal with mount and othe combination. Honestly, I really got a good strap and I am happy with it. I had gotten an aftermarket strap from MSA and I did not like it. I had it returned and decided to use the factory one. It is amazing that in 2012 we are more advanced and no one can't duplicate a strap like the OE.

June 2, 201410 yr comment_449048 I found this response in this thread, and it addresses exactly the problem I now have with my differential strap. With Roger Schmidt's help, I've converted my rear end to the later configuration (I replaced my straight (1970) mustache bar with a curved one and a new rear diff mount, got the longer driveshaft and the later front diff mount), all is good EXCEPT that now my strap is too far forward. So, what do I do now? How do I get the strap to do its job? Thanks for any advice!

June 2, 201410 yr comment_449056 You will need the later strap bracket as well. It is wider to move the strap back. as well make sure to get the bolts and sleeves with the bracket.

June 3, 201410 yr comment_449068 Install the Ron Tyler Mount......you may have to modify it for the early converted cars, but it works like a charm.
