    That is a real nice crossmember. I hacked the factory crossmember up to make it work. Now I might need to copy your Earl, or ask you to make me one. It looks very cool. i know your if surely stronger than mine's.

    These pics are Frank's, and I think he took them down. Might pm him and see if he can mail them to you, or repost them.
