I used the original V8 stands in the rear position with ICT Billet mounts from eBay. The mounts are in the second position from the rear of the adapters. This allowed my trans mount to match my crossmember location because I didn't want to mess with the driveshaft length. I had the driveshaft shortened in 2001 when I changed to a 700R4. The only problem this has created that I've found so far is the rear coil on the passenger side hits the firewall, not the end of the world. The drivers side has a ton of room but the primary for cylinder #4 is about 1/4" from the frame. The ground clearance is higher than when I had long tubes on the ZZ4 I pulled to the 5.3.
