Crossmembers

Crossmembers

Crossmembers are the transverse structural members that span the width of the vehicle frame, supporting the engine, transmission, suspension, and steering components. Performance and aftermarket crossmembers in tubular steel or CNC-machined aluminum improve chassis rigidity, enable engine swap clearance, and add ground clearance over factory stamped-steel designs that are prone to damage or rust.Popular UpgradesTubular K-member crossmembers for Fox-body and SN95 Ford Mustangs, and tubular front crossmembers for classic Chevrolet muscle cars, are the most popular performance crossmember upgrades. These lightweight tubular designs reduce unsprung weight and allow coilover suspension installation that is not possible with the stock K-member. LS and LT engine swap crossmembers for non-GM platforms solve engine positioning and mount location challenges in hot rod and restomod builds. Off-road skid plates and underbody guards that double as crossmember protection are popular upgrades for ...
