Manual to Auto (Shift Linkage Problem) help!!

[dmw319]

So I am in the process of trying to install my automatic shift linkage to my transmission and I am not able to see how the bracket (in the first pic) attaches to the frame. Is it the correct one? The car was originally a manual trans so I was assuming Id have to drill holes in the frame to attach it, but I cant even get it to fit in the right position because of the cross member piece that goes between the frame under the transmission. Its too jammed tight. I cant push it any further over to the right (toward the front of the truck) without it hitting. What do I do? Ive seen pictures of brackets that look not as wide, maybe I need to use one of those? Any help is appreciated!
