A two-piece modular phone jack assembly (14) is shown including a connector housing and a carrier subassembly (40) mounted in the housing. The latter comprises a support member (42) which mounts a plurality of stamped metallic elongated conductors (44). The support member includes a body portion (72), a generally horizontal base portion (74) extending rearwardly of the body portion and a generally horizontal cantilevered top portion (76) extending forwardly of the body portion. The conductors (44) are positioned and staked in the flat, upper surface of the top portion (76) of the support member and are simultaneously formed by bending during the manufacturing process.
