71 Duster 360 (new project)

actually ...the x member is still in the truck....removed rear mount on trans...was going to raise the tail up to get x member off...but I forgot i had removed the last bolt in back on engine...trans came out with it lying on x member......then the fun began....lol

so i unbolted the OD section and i was able to get the trans out....now..gotta get that x member out too...remember having a tuff time with the old 94 2500 dodge we have

looks like the x member is swedged in.......
