USCT Crossmember for 518

AAndrews said

I considered this option. The 518 is a much bigger trans and requires cutting the torsion bar mount and the floor to clear the housing. This piece is designed to put the strength back into the torsion bar support.
USCT makes excellent products!! Too bad they don't show a 518 installed with their kit.

Yes, that would have been a wonderful set of photos to see. I"ve read through the sticky post for putting a 500 in, so I'm aware of what will need to be done. I just have to figure out the rest of it before I get started since I'm also coverting it from a 4 speed manual to an automatic. Have to consider all that will entail as well.......
