Good morning all i will be building a transmission lifting device and a front GMC jack pad for my project this weekend. what i dont know is the spacing between pins on jack pad for holes in cross member.I do not have access to my coach to measure.It is broke down approx 100 miles away in the Drumheller valley. Does someone know this or could measure. Also any suggestions on tool and supply list for removing transmission and final drive. Instead of "everything i own or can get in my truck". Thanks so much this group is awesome for advice, info and ideas. I mostly just lurk and poke through the info and pics. My coach would not be what it is today with out you all.Again THANK YOU!!! GMCers and suppliers!!!When i figure out how I will post pics of my recent complete reno and all the upgrades i have done over the years.I.have gotten many compliments and lots of attention and admiration where ever i take her. So long for now. Work time. .PS. will fill in profile later i think i now know how for now will just type it in one finger at a time

Terry,
As mentioned previously, 3.56 inches on center, one inch diameter holes. Remember that they are not centered on the crossmenber -- so when you jack it up you will get a little lean.
