Re: 72 C20 Cummins/5spd swap build thread

I lowered the cab down and I have a slight clearance issue. The very top of the trans tunnel is resting on the bell housing. It is so close that I am going to purchase a new set of cab mounts and see if that gives me enough room.



Also, for a transmission crossmember I had an aftermarket 4 spd crossmember laying around that I was able to use. When I measured my driveshaft angle I was able to use a piece of 2x4 steel to mate the rubber mount to the getrag 5 spd. I will have to re-evaluate this since the ride height and rear end are different than the other truck I had this set up in. More on the driveshaft and the carrier bearing mount later when I get to putting it in this truck.
