t-5 / t-56 Trans X-Member??? (UMI Chime In)
Quick question, does the t-56 mount in the exact same spot as the t-5? I was thinking of getting a torque arm and relo kit from UMI for the t-5 i got, and need to know if it will cross over to my t-56.

4th gen transmission mounts are a little further back. About 2 inches farther back I think.

a lt1 style trans will not line up, its lower and farther back.

they do make a retrofit t56 that bolts right in place of a t5 though.

OK thanks guys. I'll probably end up making my own, seen a few threads in Fab and it doesn't look that hard.
