I can't recall if I trimmed the tabs on mine or not. I actually use them on my Viper to help remove and install the trans though. They have holes in them, so my dad and I made up some brackets that bolt to our transmission jack and reach up and locate in those holes to lift the trans by the tabs. The bottom is anything but flat and isn't symmetric at all, so it likes to roll around on transmission jacks. The tabs do a nice job of letting the adjustments on the jack actually do something. I think I recall using at least the front ones on my Dart for that reason, but I might have trimmed the rear ones for clearance.

Brilliant! I will keep that idea in mind.

I wouldn't expect yours to have it, I was assuming it was a later model addition. But I was just guessing.

You might be able to find a plastic mock-up, but I've never really looked that hard. I know they make foam engine blocks for stuff like that, so it seems like transmission ones could exist. Guess the other option would be to get a junk one and pull the guts out so you just have a case. Still not exactly light, but probably way easier to move around.

Speedway released these at SEMA this year. I didn't want to spend $250 on mock up parts though.
