Another vendor is making a Pfadt-style mount now:

I don't have experience with it, but it might be worth a shot if you can't find a Pfadt.

I know what you mean but you may have to wait a while before another used Pfadt comes up for sale. I was ultra-lucky and bought a used one here a few months ago. I documented it in CAD in case I ever need to replace it and Pfadt doesn't return as promised.



The company in the link above also distributes DTE products such as the DTE tranny brace so I would bet that the dimensions and fabrication for that clone diff mount are good. It's not difficult to reverse engineer the Pfadt mount. The price is up there, though.

We have sold three of our braces and have a prototype on a car for over a month now with no issues. Perfect fit and solid install instructs.

We have stock and very welcome to any questions or comments on our product.

Thanks,
Jason Massey

Jason, would your company be interested in having me do a full write-up on your product here on the C5 forums?
