New Transmember

This is the new design for the transmission cross members. I have a jig and templates set up now so I can make them a bit faster.
They will come with Grade 8 hardware, TIG welded. Trans bushing is not included.

79-95 4 and 5 speed. I am not sure if it will fit an auto. As long as it still has the same 4 bolt pattern for the bushing to bolt to then I would assume so. But I can't give you a definite answer. Sorry.

Damn nice work Seth. Tig is so clean and beautiful.
What's your going price on that setup?

I'm thinking $149 + shipping.
I haven't really sold these before, but I think that sounds fair. If a lot of people are interested I may drop the price a little.
This is the only shot of the welds I could get to come out.

Seth it should work with the auto tranny. My 91 was an automatic & I changed it over to a 5-speed & used the same crossmeber that was in the truck with the automatic.

Cool, thanks. I didn't want to be accused of false advertising. Makes sense that it would swap over though.
Personally, I like my design better than the Cando, but my opinion is obviously biased. I just like that you can run the exhaust below the crossmember, because it keeps the floor cooler. Theres is 3" of room for your exhaust to run through, so you could run up to a 2.5" exhaust and be fine.
Also I found it slightly annoying when pulling my transmission I had to remove the whole crossmember, which is why the center section now unbolts instead. And there is plenty of room to pull the transmission without it on there.
Also this is only meant for stock frames, because it is 4" tall. It is 1" wider than the stock frame so it is a trim to fit application. I am doing this because none of the Toyota's I have worked on where exactly the same width. Some differed as much as 1/2".
