Brad, I missed this before, Sorry. We welded a couple of tabs and bracing onto the front of the stock x-member, and kept it in the stock location. Downside is that the trans and engine would need to come out together, because of the "enclosure" at the rear of the trans. But other than that, it worked out slick. I went with a stock 3 on the tree column shiftand welded up the linkage and turned it into a column shift auto. I got a lokar column cable shifter kit and that was it. | | |
