[john j]

Hello from the state of NH. My name is John but they call me JC. Don't know why , but they do. I've been here for 8 1/2 years. I moved from sunny Calif. and remarried. I have 3 daugheters and one son. 9 grandchildren. My project is a 58 3/4 ton that has been in the family since 62. Many great memories in her with my dad. I am not sure if i am going to 4x4 it or slam it. I do know that a small block and automatic is the way iam going. Iam looking here for a 1/2 ton front axel set up now. I don't want to change from the Ibeam axel. I have a question on the motor mounts. If you use the stock front mounts,on the front of the block, do you have to make some for the back of the block? I know you can use a trans mount on the tail housing, but wat about where the block meets the trans. Any and all input is neede. Thanks
