im having some problems getting the motor in and i was wanting pictures of what you guys did to your oil pan or crossmember to put it all together.

ive currently got a double sump pan on it and dont mind converting to either front or rear sump but want to make sure i buy the right one.

I'm using the mounts where you have to "waller out" the holes on the frame for the big ol bolt on the bottom of the mount to go through. not sure what theyre out of.

I'm also wondering about pan to pavement issues, the truck is bagged so obviously having the sump above the crossmember on a horizontal plane is the only option.


any help is appreciated

i do not have any pics of mine but i notched the center section of the crossmember and then replated the bottom of it and made a mean skid plate to save my oil pan!

I dont have any pics of mine either but if your talking about the crossmember held on with two bolts on either side I welded plates on mine and extended them like the size of the member and mine fit like a glove.And is plenty high off the ground and im sitting on my bump stops but im not bagged
