Ask Dax for the Big tube frame adapter or you can craft your own. I had the same issue and it was a simple fix.

THERES AN ADAPTER PLATE . IT WILL BE RECTANGULAR AND HAVE THREE HOLES USE PLIERS TO REMOVE STUDS AND BOLT PLATE IN WITH THE LONG BOLT POINTING OUT THE OTHER WAY. DRILL A HOLE IN THE LOWER TUBE PUT LONG BOLT THRU AND USE LOCKING NUT ON BOLT END THAT STICKS THRU THE BOTTOM OF FRAME.

OR IF YOU HAVE TIME TO MAKE IT LOOK NICE TAKE A ROUND PUNCH AND A HAMMER . MARK WHERE YOUR BOLTS WILL BE . AND MAKE A TRENCH ON EACH SIDE OF TUBE UNTIL ENGINE STUDS WILL CLEAR.

HOPE THIS HELPS
