Bumping this for a quick question...
Im going to be sectioning the xmember only to gain "ground to crossmember clearance, not really to go lower, and I'm also going to cut off the stock upper coil pockets where my current upper bag bolts to, and remake an upper bag plate.
While I'm at it i definitely want to take advantage of moving the xmember forward an inch for looks, and i know thats going to move the engine with it..
it looks like the motor mounts are bolted pretty far back on the xmember as it is, meaning its unlikely i could simply drill a new mounting hole for the motor mount 1" back, if i wanted to try and keep the engine in the same place. is this right?
anyone have any tips for this type of mod..i am limited on drive shaft yoke length, moving my motor/trans forward would leave me with very little yoke attached to the output shaft in case y'all were wondering.
