another 61 apache question??? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Does anyone know of a company that makes bolt on transmission crossmember for the 61's. Trying to convert from a 4 spd manual to 700r4. I'd rather buy a bolt on than have to fab one.

Perhaps someone else will jump in if something has changed, but I've never found much of anything available in the aftermarket for the 60-62 driveline. No motor mount perches, trans adapters or rear suspension anything. Pretty much everything available is for 63-66 only. Perhaps someone that has installed a 700R4 in a 60-62 can offer some tips on how they did it.

That seems to be what I'm encountering now. Thanks for the conformation.
