Reply to "Removable Crossmember"

ok I see..the removable is ment to ease access the oil pan as required. What I am saying is in oder to have the correct width of the removable you want to push it in with the original still in place, to see if it has a tight fit in YOUR APPLICATION - All Panteras a slightly different. If if it is somewaht loose add some shims. Do this with the car on its weels. Then you can lift it all up and do the cut. You might then need a device the widen the rails so the previously optimimzed removable can go in at the correct place.  The current spacer is DEF to stabilize the two big rails! Hence my hint to make the removable as tight as possilbe toward the rails. 

There are def chassis experinced folks on the forum to give you the static and dynamic implcation if the rail is too loose. The rear of the car is def susceptible to "deformation" under load - weight and torsion.
