Is that what is not fitting?

Loosen all the bolts to the mounts, crossmember to the frame
Then start all the bolts, then tighten them.

Not exactly, the crossmember' forward bolt hole is put in the center hole on the frame. I would need to drill holes in the frame, not quite ready for that.

Super close, closer than the ATS. I'm working with Bowler transmission to work that one.

If anything I'd redrill the holes you need in those ATS plates that you have. 1 hole on each side?

Are the frame plates identical?

Could they be swapped/reversed for a gain?
