Thanks!
i got a few more parts hacked out.
the saddle for the tranny mount. i forgot to grab some metric nuts for the mount otherwise i would have snapped a pic with it up in place. the little pieces of flat bar(barf) are the ends of the crossmember and have threaded holes. their counterparts will be on the frame side and have clearance holes for 1/2-20 bolts. that will allow the center section to be dropped out and hopefully make removal of the drivetrain easier. plus i dont have to figure out a way to make the crossmember removable fromt he boxed frame....
