Heavy-duty fabricated steel transmission cross member designed as a stronger replacement for the factory-style cross member. The boxed and welded construction helps increase rigidity, reduce unwanted frame movement, and provide a durable mounting platform for demanding truck builds.
The Detailed Product Description:
Built for strength and clearance, this Sky's Offroad Design transmission crossmember uses a fabricated, boxed-steel design with reinforced bends and welded seams. The low-profile center section provides additional driveline clearance while the raised frame mounting ends retain a clean, bolt-in style layout. Designed for 1980-1997 Ford F-150, F-250, and F-350 applications using a ZF-5 manual transmission. This cross member is especially useful where suspension, axle-conversion, or drive line changes make the original cross member a limitation. The rearward-positioned mounting design provides additional room for coil-conversion bracket clearance while the integrated center section incorporates a driveshaft drop-loop style profile.
