Once again...thanks. It turns out the stock ones are 1"
the ones I bought are 1 5/8". The midplate is 1/4" and that was part of the problem. The 1 5/8" now stick out 1/2" past my midplate. perfect. I was affraid that if I used the 2" or even 2 1/2" that I saw in Jegs/summit that it could be a problem sliding my trans back in order to remove when needed. Its a tight area right there in this tube chassis.
Thanks for the help guys!!
