Just like the title says the transmission is smacking the floorpan under power. We swapped the 4.0 out from a 92 ranger with an m50d and an electric transfer case. When the m50d was installed we reused the former fm145's crossmember. COuld this have the transmission too high in the trans tunnel? We also happened to re-use the original 2.8 motor mounts on the 4.0 for a drop in fit. Could they be stretching enough from the added power of the 4.0, and allowing the motor/trans assembly catch the floorpan? When i get home from school, I will get a measurement for the distance between the transmission yoke, and floorpan.
