Re: Matt's 56 3600 4X4 Build

While I was waiting to receive the fuel pump for the Silverado I finished up the trans crossmember and finished a few miscellaneous items on the frame such as removing the old upper shock mounts and bump stops. All that is left before the wire wheel and paint is to drop the springs. Hope to get that done this week.

You can see I made a slight modification to the crossmember. The trans was sitting a little too low and it had the engine with too much of a backwards angle (leaning down in the back). I welded a piece of 1" square tubing to each cup and put some spacers inside for extra strength on the bolts. Didn't come out too bad and yes I know, my welding skills needs some improvement.
