Here's what I've got.  Not doubled, but easy to make/add another.  This is the only pic I can dig up from work :hammer: I'll try to dig some more up from my computer at home :crossed:  Used 1"x2" tube and some plate.

Look for 4RunnerRick's posts.
He has the sickest crossmember/bellypan I have ever seen.
