I'm just looking to get away from the weld on tabs on each side individually. I'd like it to be connected to the cross member

Isn't the 3 piece design made so you can take out the middle piece so you can work on tcase and or trans without removing the arms?

yes that's the main idea of a 3 piece.


...and anyways, IRO has a 3 piece crossmember. it's weld on or bolt on which ever you prefer. has the option of using the built in tcase drop as well. I'm happy with mine so far.
