New transmission is here
Test fitting the new trans and bell for tunnel and cross member modifications. So far it looks like all I need to do is cut a new shifter hole, and slide the factory cross member back a couple of inches.
The cross member is held on with 3 evenly spaced bolts that go along the frame on each side, top and bottom. I slid the cross member back the distance of 1 bolt and it looks like everything is going to line up perfectly.
Luckily my floor pans are rusted out (never thought I’d say that) so I could get the upper cross member bolts out without lifting the cab from the frame.
I already have new floor pans waiting to go in once I get this done.
