1993 6.2 is hanging on cherry picker and 4.3 liter's cross member does not hold engine and proper level. It's a 1997 chevy chassis with a ultilitymaster body. I've drilled new mounting holes in the cross member for 6.2. I need motor to drop down. Maybe cross member's are differnent on this truck with 6.2.
