Not ready to give up on the DIY crossmember yet. I want to get a factory one to see how it fits and weigh my options.

passenger side looking forward.
That is a 73+ 3-piece, in the pic you can only see the frame mount and the ORD engine mount. I can't locate a pic of the actual crossmember but you may recal I used ORD's crossmember and it fits but hella tight and about 1/8" away from the pan. Butt! My engine does not move, no shaking just solid.
Anyway just keeping your mind busy
