How many of you guys have made a fixture for building transmissions in your garage? I have a couple work benches I can hand a fixture off of. I'm thinking about just using my engine stand and building a square tube fixture with tubing on one side that will slip into the engine stand.

Pics of your guys' fixtures??

Stolen from someone else's build thread.... Most of the ones I have seen are similar to this.

Basically what i was going to do too. Except I was thinking flat bar sitting on top or bottom of the cross member with adjustable studs to secure it from rotating on the fixture. Looks like he uside 1x1 square tube with tape..? Should be easy and fast to build.

lol, actually i borrowed that transmission holder from another member...

The tape was to prevent the metal bar from hitting the case alot, since it does move around slightly... it did however work out great

Yea I was thinking about using bolts on each side of the square tube or flat bar with rubber boots on the end to keep it from rotating on the fixture. I will get some dimensions and draw something up. Been a long time since I used my welder.
