so i finaly finished my m50d tranny swap in my b2. runs great, but the flange on the tranny is hitting a body cross member. (prob not the tech term). it doesn't hit it during regular driving, just from a stop as the truck "lurches" from the line. and its not hitting hard, more of a rub. but either way i wanna fix it! i was gonna get under there with a torch and do some cutting and re-enforcing but i wanted to double check that others have had this problem.

for reference i was switching from a tk-5 tranny
 
no one has had this problem?

the tranny mount was brand new, but i'm sure my motor mounts have seen better days. think maybe they are allowing flex due to age?
