My cost for this installation will be close to zero except for the bolts and the rubber motor mounts, solenoid seal and rear seal I have on order from Rock Auto. There will be no modifications to the cross member other than a few bolt holes so its structural integrity is intact. I'm still trying to find a 16 spline slip yoke to connect to the drive shaft and this will determine exactly where the cross member will be installed.
Here are a few pictures. I see no reason why this wouldn't work. No interference with the solenoid or anything else.
