Question for red rocker
I was reading on-line about the build on truckins site. It said you relocated the cross member 2 in to gain clearance for the control arms. My question is, did you relocate the stock cross member or did you fabricate one?

Re: Question for red rocker
Thank you sir. I haven't taken the front end apprt yet, are there any considerations I should take as far as geometry or is it pretty much "cut and paste"?

Re: Question for red rocker
I like that "cut and past"
I say gohead and cut and past but dont paint because it may become cut and replace the cross member cut down job is a pretty easy job after you've done one or seen one done
