The transmission support brace has two sets of holes in it, when everything is moved back the other set of holes will line up with the transmission mount ears and the lugs in the chassis. Nothing bent or out of place on my car, it all lined up like it was factory. __________________ ~Dave~ 98 328ti Morea Grun slicktop 11 128i space gray slicktop 13 JGC WK2 Deep Cherry Search | RealOEM |
