First of all..Thank you for your services!!!!! Anyways, You oughta buy the Jegster crossmember from Jegs....should go in w/o any headaches...also try iceman racing they also have what you need!! 8)

the crossmember for a th350 or 350c ( from the cars made 84 and older mostly ) is a close fit but the mounting plate needs to be cut off and flipped to the other side for it to work. Unless you have access to a hoist and a welder ( transmission jack helps too ) it's just easier to buy an iceman or jegster pre-made for your application.

i went the cheap way and cut the crossmember,now i just gotta get the drive shaft cut.hopefully they give it back to me the same day.i wanna drive it atleast once before i go back.
