I'm having a hard time trying to figure out were I need to cut my old crossmember out of my truck for a new one because I'm putting in a automatic transmission but I have to cut out the old crossmember and put a new one in but I need to know where to cut the crossmember at to remove it.

the cross member should unbolt not have to be cut out.besides you may just be able to put a different MOUNT for the automatic in first. You might check on powerblocktv.com and look at one of the truck videos they did a few older restorations/customs and may lead you in the correct direction. it 's free and you can buy a video if you like that covers your vehicle or one that is similar.
