Update ... Drilled and bolted the x-member into place and tigtened the u-joint straps on the prop shafts u-joints. Was able to drive the truck around the block today. Outside of the EXTREMELY short clutch throw that I mentioned in a posting earlier, it drove well.

Outstanding concerns ...

1. EXTREMELY short clutch throw
2. Drive line angles

Anyone have thoughts?
