I know man...thats what i told the guys at the shop...
but i have the engine set all the way back and still didnt have to move the crossmember. Im thinking maybe its these ebay swap plates im using. Should've spent the extra cash for dirty dingo ones instead. I had to drill two new holes in the crossmember for the trans mounts about half an inch forward from the stock holes....which we thought was kinda weird but the tranny is sitting on there fine so its good i guess
