Thanks for the feedback, and the pics of the front mounts. The front mounts on my truck were on a flat piece of steel about 3/8 in thick and bolted to each side of the frame. [IMG]
[/IMG] I'm gonna give this a try and see if it works. If not, I've just joined photobucket and posted some pics of the 59. I've removed the flat piece of metal to work this universal crossmember.
Another thing the previous owner did, was to cut the rear motor (I think where the bellhousing mounted to) mount out. It looks like there was a full crossmember right under the firewall (factory)?
Tell me Igotachevyor2, do you know if those frame parts are available somewhere, the ones your front motor mounts are attached to?
Whoa.........it worked, let me try a pic of the truck when I picked it up several months back...

A pic of the crossmember I want to install. I'm not quite sure where exactly this piece should bolt to the frame........[IMG]

Thanks again for the feedback.
