I had the driveline altered twice, they ended up reducing the size of the CV & tube to make it fit next to the deep transmission pan. I have good clearance now.

The crossmember, now that I put in the 1" drop spacers I am in good shape. It makes so much more sense now about the Rockwell crossmember being different than the np205 cross member. The np205 side mount was not fitting correctly until I did the drop on the crossmember, now it fits as intended. what a pita.
Very nice truck
