Both Gear Vendors & US Gear sell units that will mount behind the T/C, however niether can be directly mounted to the T/C. They need to be mounted to a separate X-member, and coupled to the T/C via a U-joint or whatever. The GV unit is available with a mounting kit & u-joint connections front & rear, however it is about $3K with the kit. The advantage to the GV unit is that it will work with 6V electricals. The US gear unit would require fab'ing an X-member, and it will only work with 12V, as it uses an electric motor to change gears rather than the solenoid that is used on the GV unit. I have a US Gear unit for sale, if you're interested.
