"Anyhow, to provide a new possibility to part of the syncro crowd thatreally likes to romp on their rigs off-road, we're developing anothercradle setup for the conversion as well. It will locate much furtherback, is beefier, single bar chromoly, and can have rock bars thatattach and tie in to upgraded driveshaft protectors that are optional."
 
Jim,
A suggestion/thought: use tubular so you can make the cradle with bends/rounded angle changes, rather than welded square/pointy angles. That all by itself will make at least a 1" difference in clearance.
