The part you need is a "cradle" into which the RZ55 fits and is attached via 
screws at the side. Think of a U-shaped piece of metal 150mm wide, with sides 
about 3mm high. Mounting holes for the drive ar about 23-24mm up the sides and 
are about 80mm centre to centre. There is a captive screw to one side and lugs 
to the other to attach this baseplate to the BA42 box. I guess the same part 
might do for mounting RRD42s (I don't have one bare to hand to check).

The mounting "cradle" has the number 74-39202-01 stamped on it, so I guess that 
the part number will be something completely different :-) always assuming you 
can order it at all :-0
