The offical m50 swap thread

[1fastcosmo]

Yeah, and that's howcome when I did it I jacked the car up and I threw the jack under the tranny to lift it up and into place. Was easy... Didn't have to spend any money and quick to do.

lol you guys over here are so fucking cheap it cracks me up a load leveler are like less than 20 bucks.Anyways I'd rather have the proper tools for jobs but I also have a lift in my warehouse sooooooooo.But why did i need to spend money on a lift for i have a jack and stands...........

Two words: Load Leveler!

My load leveler was catching the tranny on the bottom with a jack.

Looks like a nice project!
