Sorry I have not gotten back for a while. I did use your rear adapter design. Almost identicaly, socket head cap bolts counterbored and all. Also the 1/4" pilot welded through holes etc. The only difference was that I did not round the outside of the 1" plate steel. I left it square like I bought it from steel mart. As long as you turn the dish outward it works fine and it really cannot be seen. Thanks for the design work Shaley, I would never have come up with that on by own. smac
