Yes there is enough and ya never let the engine hang off the ft. mount as guess what it will break off . Do not loosen any other bolts other then the the ones on the bell housing . You can leave all 8 stick thru the frame rails into the back engine plate if ya want . When you remove the first bolt you will see how much will stick thru . Myself i just leave the top and bottom ones in on each side. This also helps on any twisting of the frame rails while on the splitting stands. The stands that i made have a wide stance so tipping of the ft section is not of concern , i mount the splitting stands to the rear of the frame rails for better handling . Minje are made out of 2 1/2 x 1/4 box tubing and one side has a piece of box tubing over the bottom tube and the uprights can move in or out for frame width , that tube has four lock bolts to lock it to the bottom tube . the uprights have a piece of 3/8ths plate that is 12 inches by 10 inches with a lot of holes and slots drilled or cut into them for mounting on different frame rails and for mounting of adapters that i have made for tractors that do not have frame rails . The casters are five inches in dia. and are heavy steel with grease fittings and also adjusting screws on each side with 12 inches of travel , they are fine for up to 20.8 x 38 tire . never had to split anything with larger tires.
