Hi Folks

I am still looking for the crossmember mentioned above. I checked junk yards close by and also tried contacting the online ones but no one got back. Essentially no luck so far, may have to drive to Houston. I found these on ebay but cannot tell if this is the correct part. Can you tell if this is the right part?

Or this one?

Hi Folks

I found the crossmember on ebay and got it. I am trying to put it on now (with the cab/engine/transmission already in place). I am not sure if this can be put in without at least lifting the engine up by 4-5 inches. Is there something I am missing? Can this be put on any other way? I took out the transmission cooler lines and exhaust out of the way but I still do not see how this will slide into place.
Thanks for any suggestions,

Erhan
