In a post from another site.
One of the easiest and cheapest you'll ever find.
Go to your local recycling center, the big one where they take cars and industrial type stuff. This part is kinda "pot luck", but wait for someone to bring in a mid-late 80s lincoln towncar. The big square 4 dr job. Get the the trans crossmember out of it (the crane operator turned the car over so I could get to it. they know me there
) You'll need to cut 2 inches off of each end, reflatten the tube ends (yes, it's 2 inch tubing, so light too!), drill a hole in each end, and in the framerails to match. If you add about a 1.25 in spacer under the trans mount, it bolts right in. Otherwise, you can move the mounting pad for the mount up on the tube if you have a welder handy. Looks factory, and I tell everyone mine is stock.
I've also heard that the floor will have to be hammered up slightly for clearance on the drivers side.
