hotrod1, Here is a picture of the one I built for the truck I am working on. I used 1 5/8 Dom tubing. It has 2 bolts at the pionts where it attaches to the frame. The motor mounts using the s10 V8 mounts , nothing special.

Here is the one I did. I wanted to use the exsisting frame crossmember so I ground off the rivits and moved it forward about 8" and did the mods you see. The bottom is 2X3 tubing and it is held with bolts so it will drop out and allow me to remove the TH-400 and OD without taking everything apart. I try to plan for MURPHY as we seem to have a special relationship.

Will any of these help?

parkwood · 08-23-2011, 09:21 PM

some shots of a '57 truck.

hotrod1 · 08-23-2011, 09:33 PM

Great shots parkwood.

Does anyone know why you do not see the transmission crossmember in back (closer to the tail of the trans) of the mount higher up with the mounting plate on the bottom of the tube so the trans corssmember is raised from the ground?

look at my next pictures from the suburban and see if that helps..

parkwood · 08-23-2011, 10:09 PM

Not sure these will help because they're from a '52 chevy car.

hotrod1 · 08-23-2011, 11:01 PM

Thanks Parkwood. I appreciate all the pictures. Want to get a good compilation of pics not only for me but for others wanting to see the same thing.
