Re: What did you do to your truck today.The 3rd chapter
Spent a few hours under my truck today changing the way the trans crossmember was installed.
When I first put the motor and trans in the crossmember was outside the frame rail and bolted to the rear mount pad on the transmission. I had to put in a 1.5 inch aluminum shim to line up the driveshaft.
I never liked it that way and finally got in there and figured out that I could flip it and use the mounting pad closer to the transmission pan. Now it lines up perfectly with no shim.
OCD, but seems better.
