Transmission mount -M5OD swap

[bbbc3]

So I just mounted an M5OD to my ‘85 ranger 4x4. I bought a news transmission mount and I can not get it to fit. I have jack up the transmission as far as I can, it pushing into the floor board. There isn’t enough room to get the new mount to fit.

Anyone know of a solution?

Did you remove the transmission crossmember? Easy access once that is out of the way.
