Yep the frame got some new holes. After all this is done, I will be filling in all the unused hole in the frame to prep for powder coating. I just finished installing my new trans crossmember today I'll try to get some pictures up some. I made some major progress. I almost started the motor today, but the clouds decided to start raining on my parade.

mtharleydavidson your build looks really good. I wish I had a nice shop to work in. Just be aware that when I moved my bracketry up, I had to move the frame channel bracket inward to the frame. Just a heads up on the geometry. Hopefully everything is perfect on your new setup coming for Kurt. Glad I could pay it forward.
