Re: My Dusty 71 GMCe Electruck
Wow that is cool, Alternator and starter in one. I have heard that the giant (three story tall) quarry dump trucks use electric motors for breaking.

Re: My Dusty 71 GMCe Electruck
having eliminated the original crossmember that held the Turbo TH350 transomatic in place in the first place, I moved on to one with some drop, using rubber feets from my stock radiator core support (run what you brong!)

Re: My Dusty 71 GMCe Electruck
That fit nice.
I just noticed that the front of the transmission looks like a "fidget". Yeah, keeping grandkids this week....

Re: My Dusty 71 GMCe Electruck
I'm going with these Jeep like AMAZON motor mounts, figuring if they was strong enuff to hold an engine they ought to hold a transmission
now hang on to your comments as this is all just spit ballin' mock up, and that frame's got more twist and turns than you know it |

Re: My Dusty 71 GMCe Electruck
Always leave us hanging, waiting for what's next. Nice work on the rounded corners.

Re: My Dusty 71 GMCe Electruck
I seriously found this metal piece sitting at a side of a dumpster a few years back, that's the quality of parts we are dealing with here people
