Got the LH mount finished up this morning and installed back on the truck. I then put a dummy trans cross member in place and jacked the truck up and removed the jack stands from under the engine. I have been worried that the weight would sag my front springs and kill my clearances. I sat the truck down and it didn't settle much. I then bounced the crap out of it, and it's good to go. Everything I was worried about is just fine.














I then moved on to start the modifications to the front cross member. I thought about hacking the rivets and building a new one, but decided I'd concentrate that time on the engine cross member because I know that'll eat up the most of the time any way. I'm going to add a piece to the top and bottom to follow the original cross member's lines. Plus it will be plenty strong as well. Then I'll have to decide how I want to do the steering box brace.
