    Looking for a trans jack adapter plate for trans model FAO16810C-EA3.

    This thing is rickety as heck on the bottom and there is just no good/safe way.

    Building my own plate now, just curious if anyone knows of one premade.

    Thanks

    I have that plate with the bean bags as well. Still sketchy and uneasy with this trans on the OTC Jack, and wont stay level.

    Thanks

    Snap a picture when you get done with your adapter. OTC trans jack 5019, what an oversized non-adjustment friendly hog! We upgraded to a Gray which I like much better. Actually has adjustment knobs and can work around it.

    20190605_133813.jpg 20190605_133813.jpg Its crude but should serve its purpose. Nice and stable and we made 2 of them. I know what you mean about the OTC Jack. We are switching between adapters often as we service a wide range and dont have enough room to store multiple Jack's to keep different adapters bolted up. The oak block and height is needed for the clearance of the flywheel housing with the hydraulic clutch. We were thinking about doing a full plate which included supporting the front but wished to keep it small and simple for now.

    These guys supply most of the OEM eaton tools. They have several adapter plates listed but no pictures. Might be worth a call although your homemade one looks like it will work fine.

    Yea I have been through there too. We have all the tooling and the plate for the endurant. Frustrating that someone makes all the tooling for a trans that's 2 years old but nothing for the one that's much older.
