I replaced my old dented crossmember with a used one just like it. Also replaced the mounts. My m1028 uses the C style trans/t-case mounts that are sold in 2 different pieces. Check which type you have, there are a few different ones depending on your trans to t-case adapter and crossmember style.
The truck seems to behave better shifting, and it picked up some noticeable torque. The 25 year old squishy mounts rob you of torque along its way to the rear wheels. Call me crazy if you want, I went from maintaining speed on hills...to acceleration up them.
Very easy to do with a floor jack and piece of wood to hold the transmission up. I also run ratchet straps under the trans and over the frame for added security.
