I have seen lots of questions about transmission crossmembers and how to reverse them if you are installing a C6, etc.. I never knew mines was reversible until I had it out a few months ago. I picked up a spare crossmember and it is the kind that is not reversible. I thought I'd post pictures of both of them next to each other so people can see what the difference is.
The black one is the one off my 66. It is reversible. With my small case cruise-o-matic, I have it with the mount on the forward side of the bolts.
The dirt one has 65 written from it, so I will assume it is what came in the 65 Galaxies. It is not reversible.


Straight across on the 65 crossmember.

Offset on my 66 crossmember.

On my crossmember, the boltholes are mirror images of each other on both sides, along with the parking brake cable hole. Everything can be reversed.
