Finally got to get this bad boy installed today
This thing is robust compared to the OE design.
Install was fairly simple. Hardest part, is removing the skid and factory UCP. If you are still running those, it's a cakewalk to get off. I'm running Rubberduck UCP which is heavier than **** and required a few people to take off.
A pic off my OE crossmember, bolt is sitting off center. Not sure if this is from the bolt falling out and replacing it in the ground in a parking structure or not, probably
Replacement is easy, you have two bolts on each side of the crossmember and one in the center. You need to support the diff when it is out. Luckily, mine was done on a rack and we used a floor stand to replace the crossmember. Total time was less than an hour.
And a big thanks to Dwaine for coming up with this fix for the 2. I was on my second crossmember. Don't foresee replacing it again.
