because I used a TandM doubler and not stubler(like firezapper), I had to space the shifters away from the tranny more so the shift linkage would clear the front tcase. It sticks out more on the shifter side then the stubler does. This is why the hole in the floor is so big.

Thanks you guys
 






I used tube on the rear cross member because it's what I had in the shop, and I used flat bar on the front cross member because I couldn't come up with a way to fit tube and still keep it tucked up high

I drove it in the drivway a little. In double low it just crawls. It's awesome. there is a large rock on the side of the driveway and the truck just crawled up the rock with out gas. *****in:D and the torque is amazing:burnout:
 






I probably would've used a single bushing mount right at the t-case mount (like your trans mount). With the engine twisting and moving around on it's own motor mounts, having the case bolted hard to that crossmember is going to put a lot of stress on the doubler assembly and the transmission extension housing.
The two mounts (trans & t-case) also should be inline with each other (or close to it).

Looks good otherwise though. Having a doubler rates right up there with lockers when it comes to added offroad capability :D
 












There are bushings on the rear mount, but he makes a good point. I never really thought about that before. I guess we will see how it goes.
 






Anyone know what this stuff is that is used to cover the shifter holes?
 






Aluminum? That would be my pick as its easier to cut and obviously wont rust (not that it matters, you live in a state where it rains WD40 so nothing ever rusts).
 






You could be right. for some reason it looks like a sheet of plastic or something like that, but I can't really tell. Aluminum might be the way to go. Plus I need to go pick some up for the dash.


My 1000 post. Hell yea:D
 






I thought I would add mine over here, great thread!
