my 85 1/2 ton truck (civvy) had a slotted one(top), replaced it with a 86 1 ton one(bottom). Curiously I have never seen another slotted although I honestly never really looked to see, only on the ones when the bed was off.
the slots on mine seemed pretty smooth, and still had the factory rivets holding in the cross-member so[/QUOT
Those are not transmission cross members you are showing me.
You have one heck of an imagination. Why would a forklift have run over it? Why not a 5 ton or lets get real fancy. My Son drove over it with his Osh kosh Marine Corp 7 ton just for the fun of it. And to get Dad fired up.Looks to me like it was slotted with a cutting torch. Maybe the factory one was trashed and someone changed with a junk yard one that needed some massaging to fit. That might be the factor one and some took it off to work on the truck and it got ran over with a forklift or something and the just tweaked the holes instead of straighting it.
yeah, missed the other post on other page, I saw crossmember, then the pics, and assumed it was on of the frame members.Those are not transmission cross members you are showing me.
You never know when the haunted forklift (The Demon Lift the killer of crossmembers) might run through your shop. Lol.You have one heck of an imagination. Why would a forklift have run over it?
