Best place to pick up a X member for a T56

I know sphon makes them all day, i would even like the TQ arm to connect to it, but if i can find this combo for 150$ rather than 200$ that would be awesome. I think i will have to bite the 50$ higher bill but i was just checking, thanks guys.

Re: Best place to pick up a X member for a T56

Yea, i will if i have to, but i was wondering if there was a cheaper unit out there. Was lookin to save maybe 50$ ya know? Not allot but saveing here and there adds up. Hell, there isnt even a new part on my car as is besides crank and pistons, the rest is used.

Re: Best place to pick up a X member for a T56

I know what you mean. I try to get used stuff whenever I can.

Anyway try to do a google search for spohn cross member. When I bought my cross member & torque arm I got it from some other automotive web site. The price was the same but they offered free shipping so it saved me like $40 or something. I try to find the site when I get home if I remember.
