Re: Interference: brake booster and CPP crossmember, please help!
oh, and as for the original topic:
no one ever said the transmission crossmember has to go straight across the frame. theres nothing wrong with making one that bends and attaches several inches back on one side then the other.. remember, the crossmember is not there to keep the engine from tipping side to side, its there to hold the tailshaft at a given height, and hold the engine/trans centerline to the truck. |

Yes, our trans crossmember will clear most other manufacturers P/B kits, being that most of them copied ours. I will refrain from the pinion angle discussion, as it seems to be getting a bit heated.

I thought it was very helpful & informational discussion, far from "heated".
If you really want to see some "heated" discussion, spend some time at the Harley Davidson forums. Bottom line: if it works good, if it doesn't somebody could get hurt. Cheers! |

Not to change the subject.....but I sure hope I don't have interference with oil pan, straight axle, engine crossmember or anything else when I go to install my new PS kit from "No Limit Engineering".
Pretty cool little unit, hope it works out for the $$$.$$ I shelled out. |

I do agree that no one said the cross member needs to be straight. How low does your tranny sit in relation to the frame? Does it have to be a drop member?

Our P/S rack kits take up the same amount of room as a piece of 3" tubing on the back side of the axle. If you have room for that, you'll have no problems.
