Some early 69/70 lwb trucks used low hump floors with bb so you don't need to cut the floor to make it fit, unless you just want to.
Ok, I re-read this... the X-member will work, but requires a different pivot point bracket for the linkage....
I did expect the driveshaft change already (plus we don't have one so we were having to have one made already)
