FWIW, MTL's website recommends #1131.

Cheers,

that looks like it is for the earlier ones with the long drawbar couplings. looking for a solution for the newer ones with the swinging body mount couplers.

To be honest, I just cut off the rapido, and made the L part of the arm with the box behind the diaphragm, then drilled and tapped the arm and mounted I believe a 2004... Or whatever the MT underslung coupler is.
Sorry If it's misleading, I can take a few pics if you'd like.
