replacement rear crossmember?

[Brandon]

mine is looking like one big booger, welded so many times it is nearly all weld. Time to chop it off and replace it with something, anyone done this? I don't even run a track bar anymore and it has a complete crack across both sides at the top and one in the middle (just welded em yesterday, again).

I am going to ditch my flatbed and build one welded to the frame to stiffen it up, hopefully that will help.

Your talking about the horse shoe cross menber right?
I wondered about the strength of it cause I'm in the process of starting to fab an anti-axle wrap bar   I thought about reiforcing it just in case; now after hearing about yours   I'll be a beefing it up

There was a truck I just saw with a flat tranny cross member on it - pushing his tranny up over 3", he cut out the tranny tunnel in the floor board for clearance. I did like his new rear cross member as it was now square tubing flat across frame rail to frame rail.  Nothing hung below side frame rails
