I remember now why i have to remachine stuff..


That clocking ring is already drilled for a 5 bolt adapter.

I wouldve had to have made a whole new clocking ring if i used the 6 bolt adapter.

After measuring about 5 times, i cut the hole in the floor for the shifter, also got the trans and t case in the truck tonight.
Tomorrow ill start working on the driveline.

There are 6-bolt clocking rings available too. But I fully support the way you did it. I really wish I had those abilities.

Ok, so upon installing my crossmember to get the trans height finalized so i can begin setting up the shifter linkake... of course, i discover the crossmember will interfere with 4x4...

Ill be the first to say, this is some my poorest work ive ever done. I used 1"x.125" tube and looped it under where itll clear the front shaft.....
(Only material i had enough of to do anything with )
Looks terrible, but should work.
I obvioualy test fit it before final weld, fits just fine.

So finally,
1. My insisting on a np241 is validated (lots of available driveline angle)
2. The reason for modifying my cross member
