Default 1500 CWT transfer case holder

Hi Phil,

Thanks for your comments.

Like all devices the design evolved over the afternoon.

Clearances of bolt heads in the raised and lowered position required the 45 degree slope cut on the rear locating batten.
The larger block of wood was added on the front side to give support to the declutch shaft carrier, and therefore more stability in the raised position.
The square block of wood on the base was added to raise it slightly to enable a lifting strop to be passed underneath if no one was available to help lift it in or out of the holder.
And finally, the block of wood was added under the hinge on the base to raise it to the same height as the square block to enable it to lay flat for storage- on the wall until next required!

Cheers,
