FYI
I am looking to buy a Hydromatic Crossmember and a pair of used 2 Door aluminum Sill Plates decent enough for a driver.

   Thank You,

  • Chuck I've got a very decent hydramatic crossmember . What year 51-53 or a 54?  Got both. 704 792 9110.

    Just curious Lance.. What is the difference for a  54?
  • Dave, A 54, for some reason is a bit narrower on the 'ears' than the earlier years. Don't know why. I didn't notice this until I had to use one to accomodate a hydramatic on a 51 I was installing. I was going nuts trying to figure out why the tranny would not slip quietly onto the cross member.  I later checked the parts book and sure enough there are two different part numbers for the 51-3 hydramatic and the 54 hydramatic. When I went upstairs and got another hydramatic crossmember it slipped right in . No problem. When I later did a side by side comparison you could see the 54 was a slight  bit narrower on the 'ears' than the earlier ones.  Weird.
  • No Ken, This was a GM hydramatic. I know what you mean about the Borg cross member on a 54 but this was a GM hydramatic. There is a separate Hudson part number  for in in 54 only.Check it out in the parts book.
