Re: crossmember?

Why don't you just use the 2WD engine crossmember? All you need to do is cut the ends (where the coils seat) off flush with the outside of the framerails and trim the bottom of it up so it is not as tall. That's what I have done in the past and it worked great (didn't cost anything either).
