Do you sell your crossmember by itself? That thing is sick. I would buy the whole kit from you but I am pretty sure I will be going above 7.5 inches at some point.

Great looking product, just a couple quick questions;
You said you could make the cross member to fit with stifeners, is there an added charge because it's a custom order?
I dont have any experiance with long arms, but would it be better to have stifeners with a long arm syestem?

Frame stiffeners are a nice addition for a rock crawler but they aren't manditory just because LA's are part of your plan. It all boils down to personal preference really.
Since most off the shelf stiffeners are 3/16" there's really a minimal increase in the materials used, so no extra charge.
