Yeah the crossmember is defiantly the route that I'm gunna take, but I'm not quite sure how the crossmember mounts to the inside of the frame, what did you guys do with with the cables and brake lines? As for the tranny mount, do i use the stock one in conjunction with the cross member or just bolt the tranny right to the crossmember. Has anybody used the advanced adapters sye, johns 4x4 installs them and a custom shaft. Thinking about going that route.
