TX 67-72 Front Crossmember - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I need to find a straight and solid front crossmember. It not the engine & suspension support crossmember. I'm looking for the structural brace forward of that for frame support.

This is my broken and bent one now.

Is the metal is split next to that hole on the bottom or is that something else?

If it's split, where do I send the money?

That's a piece of wire tied on there, send me your zip and I can get a shipping quote. Pp works for me if you have that, if not money order works also.

That worked out well. Post a WTB for a 67-72 part on the Pre-47 parts board and bingo!

No point in moving now I guess

The funny thing is that was the post showing on the main page since 10/15 and it just caught my eye yesterday. Before looking at the post it made me wonder if maybe guys were doing 67-72 truck clips on Advance Designs

The irony in what you just said, I convinced my dad to use one on his. Doing a cummins swap and needed a good suspension setup that kept it 8 lug. A 5/8 steel plate on each side used as a shim, drill a few holes, put on a rack and pinion and done!!! Frame rails have the same taper front to back just 1.25” narrower is all.

Well there ya go! It really is a thing. I think this is the most interesting, and gainful, thread I had ever seen! Happy New Year! Keep 'em rollin'!
