Hi,

First time poster, please be kind.
I've got a 1950 F1 body with a 1966 FE428 on a 1974 F100 4x4 chassis. I'm in the process of removing the motor to 'refresh' it and wanted to know if i could leave the NP435 tranny & NP205 transfer case on the chassis. I see a stock cross member holding up the transfer case and am afraid this might not be strong enough to hold up the tranny after i remove the motor using the engine hoist.
Also, the radiator and fenders are off. Essentially motor on chassis so clearance for motor is not an issue.

Thanks for your help!

Ben
