TH400 to 3spd manual crossmember swap
Im sliding a shortbed frame under my 1968 c10 equipped with a 3spd manaul trans. The shortbed frame has an automatic transmission crossmember bolted to it. I unbolted it and cut the rivits off my 3 spd trans crossmember in the longbed, lined it up on the shortbed frame and there are no holes for it (unless i got it on backwards).
Should there be predrilled holes in the crossmember for a 3 spd/manual trans member? Thank you guys I appreciate it

Re: TH400 to 3spd manual crossmember swap
When you say "predrilled holes in the crossmember", which crossmember are you referring to? Did you mean predrilled holes in the frame?

Re: TH400 to 3spd manual crossmember swap
Figured it out. The swb 1969 frame has holes for auto and manual transmission crossmembers.
Thanks guys!
