the MU site is down. but out of the 2 from CJ pony, i would go with the first one. ron morris is very good stuff, although judging by the looks it doesnt look that special. i bet you could make one yourself and save a ton of money if your comfortable fabricating stuff up. i wouldnt get a trans crossmember thats universal. your just asking for problems IMO

of the ones listed, stay away from the universal one, buy one that is made for your car. i have the ron morris one in mine and it seems to be just fine. i liked the looks of the MU crossmember better but found a good deal on mine off of ebay.

I actually own a RMP AOD crossmember and the quality is awesome. Very lightweight but looks very strong. Can't say much for fitment yet.

I would not be afraid to go with the universal one. A little bit more but you'd never have to buy a crossmember again if you decided to swap transmissions. I have read a few people getting these and the installation being very easy and fitting very well.
