Crossmember location for a TH400 on a SWB

I am wondering which holes are used on the frame for mounting the OEM crossmember for a TH400 trans, coupled to a 402 in a SWB frame, 2wd? Here is a pic of the passenger side frame rail, showing the crossmember as it sits now. Does it need to go forward, or backwards from where it is now? The frame/cab mount you see at the bottom of the pic is the front mount on the passenger side of the frame. (I know it looks like the rear mount on the drivers side from the way I took the pic ) I want to get it set in the proper place, so I can see how close the driveshaft I have is to fitting.

Here is a wider shot, so you can tell where I took the close-up from.

Re: Crossmember location for a TH400 on a SWB

My 67 stepside shortbed has two sets of holes that allow the crossmember to be installed in three different positions...all the way forward for a turbo 350
in an intermediate location for what have you. I used the back tow holes to install a turbo 400 with the crossmember supporting a gear vendors overdrive.
