Got my Jegs TH400 crossmember installed for my 200-4R conversion. This crossmember was only $117 shipped from Jegs. There are some mighty nice crossmembers out there that cost twice as much or more, but I can't say enough about how well this fit.

Dropped right in between the frame rails and lined up perfectly to my transmission. The floor is a bit close to the exhaust pipe contour on the drivers side, so those with worn body mounts may have different results. I'm happy with it.

Degreased my blazer spindles and backing plates for the 3rd and final friggin time! They are finally clean enough that i can sit them in my "cutlass parts closet" without getting old grease on the floor...and chewed by the wife lol! Next warm enough day i will tape off the hub hole, wipe 'em down, hit with some good primer, and paint 'em up!
Then it's on to the calipers for prep and paint.

Yah, I'm one of those unhappy customers. It almost looks like their vendor assembled it backwards, as the driver's hump sits higher that the passenger hump; the side with less clearance should sit lower, huh?

I agree, there should be more clearance on that side. As far as I can tell my bushings haven't been replaced and although it's close on the drivers side, there is no contact.

Same here, it fits, but the humps don't line up with any headers I have came up with, big or small block.

That's the main issue I've read about the jegs double hump. It also says on their site that cutlass "supreme" don't apply, but i couldn't find a true reason why. I opted to save the extra $$ for the g-force unit, and couldn't be more pleased! It's stout, probably overkill, but bolted up perfect and the humps lined up dead on with the exhaust!
