have you measured the length of the transmissions to see where the cross member would have to go?

It ain't necessarily the crossmember placement..its the mount on the crossmember that bolts to the transmission to hold it in place

lol!...right but the crossmember holds the mount, so unless you have one of those 'new models' with the floating mount the crossmember has to be under the mount. :P

Lol I get what youre saying. It don't matter so much anymore. I'm pretty indecisive when it comes to things and for now..and I mean for now..I'm just gonna stick with the t18. It's practically bulletproof and with a 300/6 in front ill have a good rig.

does your t18 grind a bit when putting it in rev? u said in the other thread u took the shifter off, does your 1-2/reverse slider look a bit chewed up towards the rear of the trans? im trying to assess the condition of mine b4 i put it in.
