Transmission cross member
I have removed the torsion suspension front end and installed a new 1980 front and cross member.
The torsion bar crossmember is still on the truck. Can I remove that member from the truck? I need to get a crossmember for the truck and I am using a 350 transmission. The books only seem to show cross members for 63 up. Is there a standard member or do I have to gerry rig some new crossmember. Any suggestions would be appreciated. |

Re: Transmission cross member
Hey I was wondering the same thing I think it can be removed but I would weld in a plate or something to reenforce the support that brace provided Ihavent removed mine yet how difficult is it to swap out Also I bought a 63 trans crossmember then made a template out of cardboard cut the crossmember welded the mount plates back on then drilled holes in the frame
