cool man. Love seeing new projects on here. Got a couple questions/comments:

I would box the frame some where the new frame meets the old.

I also might consider making gussets for under the link that is holding the lower bag bracket. Something like in this pic. (hard to see, but you get the idea.)

Last thing, how much did you section your x-member? Did you run into any clearance problems with the inner tie rods?
