I aired the truck all the way up. So I could mark where the transmission crossmember will be sitting. Having the bags being able to go this high will help with all kinds of stuff like changing the oil, working under the truck and loading lowered cars like my track car or auto cross car.

I finally got the engine in. I still have to make motor mounts and get it in to its final spot. At the moment I have a 2x6 on top of the crossmember to give me a decent amount of space between the oil pan and the cross member. It will sag a little when I do the final install. Hopefully I will start on the mounts tomorrow.

This side is where I want it but the engine is not straight at the moment so the driver side mount it off. The sun was going down and my back was killing me so I had to call it quits for today.
