    No engine to bell housing support?

    find the civi parts and add them . the motor side is just a plate between the mount and block . as long as the tranny has the 6 bolt aluminum convertor cover with the 2 bolt hole bosses on it .

    ADVICE NEEDED: Sled Pulling with m923a2

    from what I have read the 8.3 cummins don't like more than 1800-2k rpm max of the bottom ends let go . better recheck your home work . . . . I could be wrong tho .

    No engine to bell housing support?

    seems odd the frames got extra beefy brackets by the fire wall section of the frame . but the civi issue support rods didn't make it .

    Plow truck performance review;)Fina

    lots of big truck supply shops ( aka big truck auto parts stores ) can get / sell you the stuff for the hydro's . and some if it is a common engine might even have direct bolt bracket kits . to keep hoses to a min maybe look at electric control valves .

    Realign steering wheel after lifting

    the drag link from the steering box / pitman arm to the steering arm / on the knuckle is this adjustment point . and the lift kit if 3" or more should have included a raised steering arm for the knuckle on the axle . the drop pitman arm is a lot more rare to get in a kit and cost a lot more...

    Those with 4inch lift

    and the little tubes on the factory bolts are NOT to space the crossmember down . doing this over time will break the frame rail lips . as said droping the t-case is a bandaid for the rear but kills the front .
