Everything fits but the cross member clearance is barely anything. I cant even stick my hand between the oil pan..


Time for a victory beer.
 
There they are!!

Looks great and thanks for the pics and guinea piggin' these for me.

Yep, he did. Another guy got a set with 7/8" offset in them. Probably a little better for this application.

Kurt, I wish you would have had those last year when I was doing mine. They look like a much better product then the dirty dingo mounts I used.:doah:
 
Since you've named yourself after a Vince Vaughn character, I'll throw out one of his quotes from Couples Retreat when the weird therapist guy has them drop their pants in front of everyone: "Oh now it's a party!" :bow: :thumb:

Hahahaaaaaa. Looking good dude.
 
Im going to be ordering that same crossmember soon, as my BBC oil pan basically sits on the factory crossmember. I was hoping that one would give me a little bit of extra clearance. Great build.
 
trucks lookin good buddy!!!! you have officially passed me up in the swap, congrats man. you think you'll be ok with that oil pan clearance? think you'll dent the oil pan if the truck flexes or anything like that?
 
You wouldn't believe how hard it is to find something like it. I would run the engine ecm and power through the cab.
 
Looking back at it, thats only half the connector. That gives you only the female side. You would also need the corresponding male side and pins.
 
description says, Comes With (1) 100 Pin Hole Connector Body. (1) Container of (102) Plated Pins, (1) Pin Tool, (1) Locking Ring, (1) Wedge Ring, And (2) Dust Covers. :dunno:
 
I feel like you dont quite know how those connectors work. Let me see if i can find a way of describing them. But they are a two part setup. They have a mail side and female side.
 
Its almost exactly impossible for me to find a good way of explaining it... I would just take some pics cause im at work and we use them all over here, but thats illegal... But here is one kind of example i could find. You can see that there are male pin on one side and female pins on the other. The connectors lock together creating a quick disconnect.

Yup, that is what I'm trying to do. I just assumed for 60 bucks it was included. :haha: Do you have any idea where to find these besides ebay?
 
Doesnt seem to be right? Seems to be only one of the two halves. I dont know but it seems like ryoken and cyberfire might have ideas for you on where to get them.
