    Sorry to be the bearer of bad news but the b series mounts cost 350 so its already out of budget. Plus youll need axles, linkages, hydro conversion unless your going to use a cable b series tranny.

    You could but you need to have good fab. skills. I would just buy the mount cause thats one less thing to worry about,

    300? Go to HF, buy a cheap welder, grinder, and some metal. Do work.
