Trans Dapt Engine Crossmember? 4x4 - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I don't see any advantage of using either one of those versus just using your original K series engine crossmember with a set of LS adapter plates. You would need the adapter plates with either of those TD crossmembers anyway.

From what I’ve read you can’t use the stock crossmember because the oil pan will hit. Just wondering if anyone had ever used them.

What about a different oil pan? Or simply sectioning the middle of the stock crossmember to accommodate the oil pan you plan to use.

Exactly. Your buying two items instead of just one, with these cross-members.
