best advice....pay the $100.

There are instructions on the net that tell you how to make the T-5 crossmember work but send Spohn the $100, you'll be happier and have a stronger part.

NO!

Spohn is good yes, but i have a welder and a torch and every tool i will ever need and I can make anything Spohn can. I wanted to know the difference in the cross members. Thanks for your reply though 87RS402.

hi,
someone correct me if im wrong,but im pretty sure,that you need to cut your crossmember at the parts where they bolt on,like .5 inch,or so b4 that spot,and then weld up a piece of steel backwards,and then reweld the center section to the backwards one,basically just moving the center section back a few inches to line up with the t-56,i really dont know measurements,but i know you can make it work.
