I have a 1941 Ford pickup under construction - right now it is just the cab mounted to the frame. I would like to put my rebuilt open drive transmission in it. I know the rear mount is 10" wide on the stock transmission & is 8" wide on my rebuilt open drive transmission. Has anyone performed this swap. If so what was used for a transmission mount? I am looking for information for how to mount the transmission.

I also plan to use an 8" Ford Granada rear axle w/a parallel leaf kit. I am also using a 52/53 EAB engine converted to a mercury oil pan & pickup.

Any help or photos would be appreciated.
