transmission crossmember

Which crossmember do I need to get for my maverick with a 302 and c4? thanks

 

has anyone tried the crossmember from autokrafters? this is on a 1970

 

If I recall correctly to fit a a v8 double hump transmission cross member on a 70 you have to slot the bolt holes and cut a little out of the outside edge of the center piece of metal.

You have to do this because the transmission tunnel is smaller on the 70, very easy to do. I remember reading that you can also take 2 six cylinder cross members and cut them up weld them back together and make a v8 cross member.

 

You can do what Mike said or you can get one from Frank, "71gold", at least I think they will fit a C-4. you can always ask him.

 

hmm, I have two 6cyl cross members, do you remember how you can make those work with the v8? thanks.

 

Measure the distance of the frame holes from the 70 cross member then cut it at appropriate spot to weld piece from the other cross member. I am sure if you have both in your hands you will see what is needed to be done

 

okay, thanks a lot for the help.
