Default Custom rear crossmember pics GM A-body

Show em! (please)
The one all the way in the back. Stock is fine but mine is pretty beat up.
Thinking a square tube with the right mods might work well and cost very little except my time.

I'll show the before pic (warning.........UGLY!)

LOL hook Line and sinker. I agree I'm planning on replacing mine with a custom one which would be stronger and allow for more room for exhaust. I also plan on running a watts link. Please post any pictures of what you do
Thanks Ryan Austin

Are you referring to the crossmember that holds the upper control arms? I left mine intact, but added a custom crossmember for my coilovers. Check out page 3 in my build thread. Link is in my sig.

No the very rear one. But I'll be glad to check out your build thread!

I'm confused you want to replace the very last one by the gas tank and the rest most body mounts ? If so why? ....what's the reasoning for this? Or replace the one which holds the rear control arms,springs and shocks?
