What transmission are you putting in?

Here are the TH350/400 parts http://www.jegs.com/cgi-bin/ncommerc...60&prmenbr=361

Spohn also has great stuff.

Get an f-body tailshaft housing. Remove the one on there, install the f-body housing.

Or, get the Spohn crossmember/torque arm combination. Moves the torque arm mount to the crossmember, where it should have been from the factory. Much superior design.
