That looks solid.
I'd like to see 1 more piece to join both sides together for added strength, but otherwise it looks like a great upgrade.

started by pulling this out really quickly
gave it a quick clean and started with the long arm.
the 2 thick spacers went on the top two mounts and the thin spacer went on the next hole down.
thin spacer
reused the original mount bolts. all the bolts needed to be loosely fitted before any could be tightened.
long arm fitted
short arm is just a case of pull the appropriate bolts out and using the supplied bolts fit the short arm
one of the uni's is a bit tight so i will replace it before a test drive.

It spreads the load of the transfer twisting onto more mounting points so its harder to tear them out of the case, as well as being stronger than standard so the arms dont bend
the roctoy ring was only ever designed as a starting point for making mounts

LOL. Thanks Rusho. We send all the useless kiwi's over to you guys! Increases the iq of both countries so they say
Shep has the first set of production arms. I will add them to my for sale thread when I get back home after Christmas on the 5th Jan.
$235 includes shipping

gave it a good test out by dragging my boat around, stock mounts twist with no effort
and the new jobbies still look fine.
going to drag the tinny 700km in a couple of days and use a bush ramp so if there
are any weaknesses that will show any.
