    Pro- you have no constraints for tube placement and have essentially a stronger rear

    Cons- you no longer have a truck for it's intended use, be prepared to load your cab with anything you have to transport. Think camping trips and out of town vacation, that's why I'm keeping mine

    shouldn't be..

    5speed and auto tranny mounts are very different..

    JD just gusseted up his stock tranny mount. and the motor mount perches and then used the TG motor mounts i think.

    I have the TG motor mounts and the 4xi solid tranny mount but its only for manual 5 speeds.
