Rear crossmember
I realized when I was installing my new rear mount gas tank that my frame does not have the rear crossmember. I have found one from Porterbuilt and one from Early Classic Enterprises. The Porterbuilt one is about twice as much. Does anyone have any experience with either of these? Is one better than the other?
Thanks for the replies. Anthony |

Re: Rear crossmember
I just ordered an ECE one the other day so I can't comment on the quality yet but I also considered Porterbuilt and with shipping ECE was $50 cheaper. Porterbuilt is quite a bit closer to you though so shipping might not be as much on that one which could close the gap a bit. I also liked that the ECE crossmember still had the hole for the taillight plug.
