Trans Crossmember

RedSuperRanger23 · 04-21-2008, 12:17 PM

I did a quick search and didnt come up with anything helpful. I am in need of a double hump trans crossmember since T-bird didnt come with one. A member on here has offered me one from a 94 but I wanted to make SURE that it would fit on a fox bodied car before I bought it.

Is it a 4 cylinder car?,I know the V-8 cars came with the double hump one,and I want to say the V-6 cars did too!

pre 85 foxes did not come with them, including mustangs.

Yes, since they are on the same chassis the 94 crossmember should work

its a factory 255 V-8. I dont know why it has just a single hump. I remember when I took the exhaust off, it had a y-pipe that went to the passenger side of the crossmember that went into a big square cat that crosses back over to the driver side. I dont understand it either...

Really what I need to know is: Will a trans cross member from a 94 Mustang fit on the FOX chassis?

Ok,makes sense considering they had the single exhaust.Yeah,the SN-95 one is slightly different,but it will work!

Thanks!

ARGGH! I finally got a chance to work on it again and guess what... the 94-95 crossmember that I bought doesnt fit. It appears to be too wide. I would have to weld up the current mounting holes and drill new ones for it to work. On top of that, I cant find crossmember to frame/body bushings and there is a big gap there. Somebody sell me a fox crossmember please.
