Does the new crossmember elevate the trans output shaft higher than stock, or is it an illusion?

its actually the same height but i do have a spacer (About 1") between the trans mount and tailhousing...... We decided one day the tranny was pointing down to far causing some of the driveshaft/vibrations, everything seems to work fine since we did this, havent heard from you in a while man where ya been and hows the truck?!?!?

Im doing fine! My activity with the truck has been a bit low, winter is almost over and ill have my truck back on the street. I installed long tubes and new exhaust a few weeks ago.
Im about to go try and figure my driveshaft angle problem right now... sinse the new aluminum shaft it's almost cleared up... just a slight vibration at 75. maybe ill try a spacer between the crossmember and tailshaft
