richieroo Posted May 16, 2005 Share Posted May 16, 2005 Hey guys (gals!) I need to know how some of you have made the transition to the 5 speed tranny on the cross member. How did you fit a 5 speed into a 4 speed slot! I am going to alter my crossmember for the mounts and want to know about the linkdage as well, but how did you do it? I know I can send my parts in and get them done, but prefer to do it myself. Give me your advice and suggestions and accompished stories! Thanks! Rich 05/16/05 REVISED FROM HERE: I want to know if I put in the orig mounts on the tranny, are they going to be strong enough to hold a tranny that is much MUCH heavier? Otherwise I will have to drill new holes and weld a bit. I can get the originals in there I am just concerend with weight. Rich Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
