No problem. Took a little searching today at lunch for me as well. I know I had seen them advertised in the new catalog I just received but was a bit tougher finding them online.

Thanks for taking in the time bro, this fourm is the best!!!

Ok so got my extention for my crossmember but kinda confused.. I read the instructions but still confused what really want it know is where does the 4 holes go? To the back connected to the crossmember or in The front, its also saying to drill holes in the frame? I guess for better support?I guess what i want to know front the picture in the instructions ( front of vehicle ) do the 4 holes go where the th350 orginal holes go or to the back?

I guess this part goes where the th350 holes use to go??

Couldn't find the picture I have of mine on the '81 but I found this in another thread on here:

The end with just two holes bolts to your original crossmember mount location on the frame. The other end with two sets of holes goes towards the rear of the car. One set is for the new crossmember and the other set is for the new bolts and holes that allow you to bolt it to your frame.

Ahh ok i see, so in the pic u provided i guess the person that mounted that didnt make the holes just yet lol... Ok i got it know, makes sence 🙂 the two holes to the front and the four holes to the rear, one set for the crossmember and the back set for holes in the frame to bolt to frame for support.. Yes yes make alot of since... Thanks 🙂

Extention installed was harder then i thought.. The th350 hole frame mounts were bent, so the extention couldnt fit in there.. Alot of pipe bending and muscle but i got it!! Hope this thread helps others out with the swamp..
