Mate is have the Same issue as you Matt with T700 to Hilux in 2 car's. Hilux and Bundera. He was saying something about Drilling out the thread and running a bolt instead of the studs. I'll ask him and get back too you.
Mate had MASSIVE Issues with the Marks from T700 to GQ. Seperated the 2 all the time, never sealed, dropped fluid, stripped a few stud's.

You will find that if the kit had been ordered for comp. use the brackets you are talking about would have been included. Mark did that for their Bundera that was comped.

Its not just a problem with Marks addapters. Allmost all brands suffer the same issues when addapting anything to the Turbo boxes. The pic above is a good fix and worth the effort.

Comp or not comp i know of 3 mates that have never comp there trucks that have dont the same... and only run single transfer cases. So what your saying is incorrect...

Mate with the Adaptors problem's wanted me too add "Ring Marks, Ask them. They'll tell you that there's has never come undone and it's the frist they've heard of it. IF something is wrong it's been installed wrong"

Does that mean Marks sell that Bracket seperatly ?, i have the same occuring problem.
Big thanks to Northern Suburbs Radiators and Melbourne Drive Shafts and Balancing for all your help and support.
I have a T700 with a 60 series transfer case. I rebuilt the auto & transfer case last year & it was the first time a spanner had touched them since the car was built 7 or 8 years ago & they were still nice & tight. I will get under it now just to check now though.
it's never a problem until it can't be fixed, even then it' only a minor set back
Made a brace like the pictures above last night hopefully this will fix the issue.... ... if it doesnt...mmmmm maybe just alloy weld the lot together...lol
