Delta T2 fence on Craftsman saw

I’ve seen a lot of people putting the T2 fence on Craftsman table saws but I’m wondering if anyone has done this on a saw that has extending outfeed supports or side extension wings. I have a 137.248830 saw and it looks like the rear outfeed and also the blade guard support would be in the way of the rear rail. Also, there is very little room for the rail screws to go through the front and rear of the table because of the rails that slide out with the side wings.

I think you'd be throwing good money after bad by trying to put a T2 on that saw, and I'm not sure it'll physically accommodate it without considerable effort. Most aftermarket fences are made for full size cast iron or granite top saws.
This may not be the answer you were hoping for, but I honestly think you'd be better off selling the saw and starting with something with better bones to start with. Even an old full size Emerson made Craftsman contractor saw would give you a solid foundation.as a starting point. Good luck.
