chasing people experience and opinions on transfer case cradles... i will be getting one in the next few weeks and am chasing some tips on the better ones. was keen on the eos cradle but have read a fair few reports of it shifting the transfer case back by up to an inch and causing driveshaft issues. the other one getting mentioned is ZOR snatch cradle but have also read that beefing up the chasis mounts is a good idea with this one too.

so other then these two is there any others that are worth the cash???

cheers

Dont worry. Realized i was having a spastic moment..... i would prefer a full cradle style as opposed to two "half cradles" i guess you'd call it.

Depends how u drive
If u smash the gear changes in low no cradle will save your case.
I had no issues in 150,000kms of the same 6.5 case only when i dropped the clutch at 6000rpm with 32"s on the bitumen at the pub.
U just need to weld some angle on the long tcase arm

Ben T arms with a Design Fab ring.

You can even notch out the ring and weld it to the long arm.
