It bolts to the trans. They wouldn't bolt to the body because that would transmit noise. I have only seen those on a 4L80 that uses the factory dual inlet muffler.

 

My RCSB does not have this. It is usually on a 2500hd bolted to the transmission.

 

well my 4l65e SSS has it. i believe any 6.0 factory truck has it. it just holds the slip fit and bolt up one. its a smart design everything moves with each other

 

Right, so since they made regular cab 6.0l trucks (2500 series) I'm sure there's a provision in the cab to bolt this hangar on, correct?

 

it bolts to the tranny. end of story. but they did make 6.0's with 5 speeds. in the 2500 hd. so i dont see a reason why it wont work.. or if not you can find one off a 5 speed one.

 

There are various mounts for the different transmisions that were available with the 6.0 & 8.1L engines with dual exhaust pipes. You just need to pick the correct style for the transmission and exhaust configuration you have. I believe I got the designations right, but one would be prudent to verify before ordering anything.

it goes up over the crossmember and bolts to the side of the trans just like the image above of the 80e. i pulled mine off when i got my exhaust redone because they put other hangers on instead.

 

Arrr har har!!!! I like the pics! Livesaver. I'm going to go see if there's a provision on my trans that would allow me to use the 6 speed manual bracket

 

Yessirreee, good job 1Bear, those pics cleared it up for sure Now I see how it goes...the pic in Joe's first post is deceiving
