CPP Transmission Crossmember

Anybody using the trans. crossmember (47-54) from CPP? I need some measurements and they don't want to respond to my emails. I need to know haw far the frame bracket hangs the tubing below the frame rails, How far down the bend drops the pad mount, and how far the pad mount extends out from the tubing. If anybody has one and could give me these measurements I would greatly appreciate it.
thanks, Andrew

Is your new crossmember higher or does it make the trans sit lower? Is it the lowest structure on the frame or are the runningboard arms the lowest? If so by how much?

Thanks

Re: CPP Transmission Crossmember

Did you find what you are looking for? Does it look like this? I don't know if this will help or not. I won't be able to measure it until Monday at the earliest. Let me know.

Re: CPP Transmission Crossmember

If it's the CP9424 it looks like it might drop down about three or less inches below the frame rail. If you are running the stock running board brackets I don't think you would come close to having a problem.

Yeah, thats it

Mr48chevy I was asking cause I needed to know that the crossmember would not touchdown before the runningboards.

Thanks
