Has anyone successfully used the USCartool A500 Crossmember?
That looks like it will probably work, as you've probably noticed, the A500 trans is wider on the drivers side than on the passenger side, mainly in the overdrive section, which is where the mount is. I drew a circle on one of my pics to show the area where I have the least clearance. It's about 1/2" right now, but after welding in my 1/4" thick brace, I will be down to around 1/4" clearance there. Would be nice if there was more room to build something more like it had originally, like a box, or channel structure if you will, but just no room for it. If you look at the pic of my trans I drew a box around the side of the overdrive area. This area is sticks out roughly 1" - 1-1/4" farther than the other side of the trans. This is also why I had to do more trimming on the drivers side of the uscartool crossmember.
