cross member

Post by slinkymx3 »

i have a probe turbo kit with just the turbo pipes basically...and i was wondering since i had to bend the piss outta the cross member why doesn't anyone make a x-member for a turbo set-up???? i mean it only has to support 2 mounts and connect to the frame any thoughts?

because most people just take it to a shop have them cut and bend to accommodate for the pipe. Cheaper than paying for an after market cross member and just as effective.
