    Hello Hambers,
    I'm looking for options for a traditional looking X-member for a 1933 Ford Frame as the original is long gone and the frame has been boxed. Any help you guys can give me would be greatly appreciated ?
    Thanks,
    Mark

    Ionia Rod Shop offers one as does the aforementioned CE. Both work well in stock frames.

    RJ ENTERPRISES sells one original style construction mounts in same position as original but modified to provide additional center and trans mount clearance

    Never used one but looks wider in the center for big transmission

  8. It's pretty easy to fab up the center channels. And that's the way I would go.
    If you need/ want the double inside front and rear or the U bracket that's gets a bit more involved.

    He is right. I ended up having mine bent up at a large sheet metal shop with a hydraulic break. I furnished the 10 ga metal and for $45 he made me two 8' channels. I then bent them to shape and drilled the holes. Several threads on here show the process.

    I think you're optioned out as far as aftermarket goes in answer to your specific question. Beyond that it's a case of fab your own or have a shop do it for you.
