Title: 68 RPO D55 hole positions
Post by: SS396 on March 09, 2019, 09:29:55 AM: Does anybody know of a drawing showing the dimensions for drilling all the trans tunnel holes in the correct position? Putting in some new sheetmetal and want to get it right. Got the photo off this site to show all the holes I'm talking about.

I could make you a template of mine and send it to you if you want.

If you could get all the mounting dimension from the forward bracket, you could use the console as a guide for the rest of it...Joe

Hope this works, All measurements were taken from either the centerline of the tunnel or from the seam where the cowl to floor meets (bottom of blue tape)
