By Daniel Jessup - 2 Years Ago Looking for a transmission cross member mount to install a T85 R11 OD in a 1955/56 Ford passenger car frame. I am told that the 1956 Police Cars and 1956 Wagons with the 312 and T85 had this specific cross member, but I cannot verify that. Also, I understand that the crossmember has a "bump out" towards the rear? Searching through parts manuals it looks like this should be B6A-5059 XXX (at least a 5059 is what the engine rear support is called). I do not know if Mercs would be the same concerning that cross member but I would think it would have to be a 1956 Mercury with the T85 specific cross member.  Thanks, Dan
