Was thinking of that...split it in the middle, install and weld back up?!?I've never had to split one. The 3/16" side plates will deflect enough to drive it into place. Then drill through the frame rails, and side plates to bolt everything up tightly.Rob Quote Plodding along with no job nor practical application for my existence, but still trying to fix what's broke.

Superdog Posted March 17, 2012 Share Posted March 17, 2012 I don't know what sizes they come in,but the new style 2 piece crossmembers work really slick,and as much as I hate to admit it,they don't crack like the old ones do.

yarnall Posted March 18, 2012 Share Posted March 18, 2012 Cut up!? [GASP]!!.....I can't save them all. I am going to cut up a B42s, a B85f chassis and a B61s frame. I would like to keep them, but the township has tagged them and i don't have anywhere to go with them. There isn't much good left on them.Mike Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/23906-crossmember/#findComment-108523 Share on other sites More sharing options...
PG Adams Posted April 13, 2012 Share Posted April 13, 2012 PG Adams will make them also.RobRob is absolutely right! We make custom cross members as well as frames. If you'd like to get me even a rough sketch of what you're needing, I can work up some pricing for you! Quote Taja HallFrame Sales ManagerP.G.
