I have done one of these swaps, you will need to change the brake lines and use the new edge trans mount just FYI.

It may be simpler to change the brake lines on the rear instead of the chassis.

I already have retro fitted the brake lines when I swapped the 8.8 in..I removed all brackets from the 8.8 and didn't use any of the brake setup from the 94.. everything from the 99 so far has been a direct swap.. The trans crossmember and mount is new from the 94 I'm going to retro it as well into the 99 if needed be I'll fab a bracket system up.. The fuel system to keep efi I'll be swapping and adding the return Line into the mix. . So far so good.. thanks for the heads up thus far tho!!

I had to use the brake system off the 95 donor I used, my new edge was a bare shell.

I actually like the new edge cross member better it is up into the tunnel and is a big help when mounting the exhaust.

Great build, it is funny to watch people do a double take then back up and look at the body to make sure of what they are looking at.
