Re: s10 swap, for those of you wondering....

Looks like I didn't take any pictures of the transmission mount. I first thought I would cut up and modify the stock crossmember, but that would have been too much work. I ended up taking a piece of 1.75" square tube and making a new crossmember, and mounted that to the frame with tabs. Much, much easier and cleaner doing it that way.

Problem with extending your original one back is that the tranny pan would be in the way of the crossmember, so it'd end up being a lot of work.
