DIY4x Crossmember

Who has used the the the DIY4X crossmember? My biggest concern is the change going from a motor mount to a Poly bushing. A motor mount has give a take and can break if need be. The bushing setup can't break only, welds can break. For those who have used it, have you had any issues with it?

Re: DIY4x Crossmember

I've had one on my 1 ton 4x4 for over a year now with no problems..no other vibrations or anything unordinary from the original setup. The cross member is very beefy and well made, I have another one now that I may modify for my Cummins conversion.

Re: DIY4x Crossmember

I have one, no worries what so ever. Just add a poly trans mount... all mount materials should match.

Re: DIY4x Crossmember

if you are using the blue theme, its borked.. if that is the case switch to the default theme and it should fix it. If not please post the issue is the feedback forum, so it is not missed

Also please keep classified ads in the classified sections
