I got mine from Dark hourse performance last year....they had it in stock and shipped it right out. Just a word of advise though, the xmember wasn't quite right and required a little work on my end to get it to work.

I made my own, using the Windsor-Fox version as inspiration. 1 hour to get the tranny in place (held up by a jack), 1 hour of measuring, 1 hour of prototyping, 1 hour to have the welder make it (he's got the good welder and steel stock) = 4 hours and a total cost of $35, and I didn't have to wait for it to come on a brown truck.

I am waiting on NPD. They said 30 in this week with only 16 already sold. I gave up on Sacramento Mustang. I was considering Windsor Fox or Ron Morris as well but NPD had the best pricing next to Sacramento. I can only wait so long myself.

I talked to NC. They are the main distribution center for the other stores. I would not set my watch to it, but this is what they claimed. To think I walked by a guy with a little booth at Carlisle a couple years ago that had 'em right there for $80 ... never thought I'd be needing one

Got a 1968 AOD crossmember from Ron Morris Performance in less than 3 days in December for $150 including shipping and tax. Not super cheap, but it was fast. Haven't had time and $$ to install yet though so I can't say about it fitting.

My '67 AOD crossmember came from NPD but it was a windsor-fox part. That was 3 years ago.

I just got off the line with NPD... they say about 30 Days now. I said to refund me. Just placed an order online with Ron Morris, I figure if NPD is selling Windsor Fox then maybe Ron will have them. After this I'm going to try one more possible source, I'm willing to pay a little more now to actually get one.
