I'm going to be redoing the rear shocks pretty soon, and I'm planning on angling them towards the center. I've seen people build a new cross member, but I'm wondering if the stock round tube cross member is strong enough. I think I can build something to mount the shocks in double shear.

Anyone tried this?
