FWIW, the Mustang one is the same if you have to order one. They run about $65 new.

the mustang one is different than the TC, mustang has a 2 bolt trans mount and TC have a single stud. but the stang one will work if you buy a new trans mount . And i do still have ether's crossmember its in mint condition (looks new) just PM him for a price

Actually the 2.3 T5 crossmember is the the same as the tbird and mustang. The auto 2.3 crossmember uses the single bolt crossmember.

well thats no entirely true, the t-5 tc has a unique trans mount and crossmemeber, and the auto uses a completely diffrent style. heres the pics the TC is top and the mustang-tbird-cougar is bottom

Hmm... Well you could use a mustang crossmember and use a mustang t5 mount. Probably better that way.

Look like to me you could drill a hole or two and make it work.
