I have a 85 truck and the front crosmember is bent in a little bit. The front sheetmetal part is kind of puffed out and the back part is only slightly bent.
Has anyone replaced this crossmember with a square tube or similar. Does anyone know if a standard size tubing will work? Is it necessary to make a temporary crossmember to keep everything in alignment?
I have thought about using FRORF's frame brace, but i am not sure if it would really work because i would still have to fill the gap behind the plate and would be a bit of a hack job in my opinion. Although once done if it looks okay, I'll probably never think about it again

Thanks
Ryan
