Title: Raising Transmission Post by: Eddie DVK on February 08, 2013, 12:08:36 pm How high can you raise your transmission before cutting your hole chassis?
For example is the 1" raise kit from Ron Lummus usable for this. Everything is welcome, pictures of raises and the way it is done.

Funnily enough, the KCW site has quite a bit of info in their forum about raised gearboxes!

The package tray just clears the bell housing.

[/quote] I used the bus nose cone, i had to trim the tunnel a little at the front of the inspection plate My long clutch arm dosen't hit. I hear cars vary a fair amount, how much the frame horns are bent. I used the deluxe iron kit. |
