It doesn't sound like much, but this IS my first rodeo, so I am learning as I go. I hadn't planned on removing the cross member, but it seemed a good idea to get it off and get it sand blasted. Would have been a nasty, time consuming job to prep that for paint in place. It was remarkably easy actually.
Keep up the great work, looks and sounds like you are having as much fun with your build as I am with mine...
