Thanks for the feedback. I guess I am a little confused. My understanding is that people install the removable crossmember so they can remove the crossmember when they need to service the oil pan. My thought would be the the crossmember should be able to be removed when needed or it kind of defeats the purpose. I am not an engineer by any measure but I would think the frame rails would be less prone to flexing while not in the air. That being said, is the existing crossmember really there for lateral loads while driving?
