Hey Dave is the stock x-member bolts the only thing holding the new x-member because with the mounts there you'll have a lot more stress on them.

No Brian welded the x-member to the unibody. That was a long 11 hour day but I definitely enjoyed it.

Had pretty good experiences, purchased 2 cars off eBay and many small things, sold a bunch of stuff also. Junk yards are not carrying older vehicles as much any more, they are all going to the crusher.

Not that thin.
It's plenty strong enough.

I'm not sure what that last line means but the steel is like 18 gauge and I'm not sure how you'd get good penetration without burning through. But if you're happy that's all that matters.
