build one like mine.
If you have a port-o-power or a bottle jack it makes moving the crossmember a little easier.

Pics in your build thread aint they??
The top 4 bolts on mine are rusted tight and were rounded off like someone had tried to take it out before, so i guess ill cut out above where it mounts to the radius arms and use that to fab something back or something another ill see once i get it out and get the tranny's swapped since all my spares are 2wd case's i know i need atleast a Deep pan because all the others are shallow and if i go with a different VB, ive got a spare linkage setup for the C6 for my shifter
