The cross members are available and come with the hardware for mounting the cross member to the chassis and hardware for the cross member to the isolation mount. 
You have to obtain the Energy Suspension or Prothane isolation mount from Summit / Jegs (Chevrolet version).

This mount is for the T56 Magnum's not the Viper Spec T56 prior to the Magnum.  The casings are very different.

I may be mistaken but I think when I ordered my t56 magnum they shipped me the ford trans mount, could that be right?

It should be the narrow Chevrolet version - The mounting holes are 1.50 inches apart on the Chevrolet mount where the spread in 2.165 on the Ford.  Check over your mount.  By the way you want the Chevrolet based T56 Magnum for the Mopars.  It's all in input shaft length.

The cross member appeared on this mornings Search and Restore.  They did a '74 Challenger for a fire fighter in Melleville, Missouri.  Turned out very nice!

My garage is cold and the trans is tucked away but my shipping order say its the gm version, so, I guess I was mistaken. Guess I will find out this spring :pullinghair:
