Budbuilt Crossmember
« on: Mar 19, 2007, 09:04:24 PM »
Just finished installing the new Budbuilt one piece crossmember that I got from Marlin Crawler last week.  It's a very good design and a little lighter than my previous Budbuilt, which makes for easier installation.  It also keeps the T/C's at a nice angle to allow for proper oiling.  I'll try to post some pics later.

Do I have to call to place an order or will I be able to do it online?  Can you get the Sky skid with the additional lift to move the cases up?

Here's some pics of the new Bud crossmemeber installed




(that's with an r10 adapter hence the big gap between crossmemeber and cases at the rear)

Doesn't that defeat the purpose of the r10 adapter? Or did I misunderstand what you did?

I really like your front shackle angle. I wish mine were like that!
