Default Made a little more progress.....

.....on the crossmember tonight.

Fitted it up and found that the tips didn't match up to the frame.



A little bit of careful bending in the bench vise took care of that.



I scrounged up an old bracket made of flat steel plate that just happened to match up with the .135" material thickness of the crossmember to cut up for the filler pieces. After some work with a Sawzall and grinder it's now ready to weld.



Now to hit up my friend with the MIG welder for a favor.
