First off, got this my 88 back in January. First cruiser and first time doing any work like this. Been frustrating but a ton of fun (that’s why we do this stuff right?). Been putting 2” OME lift on the rig. Front end got done last weekend. Was going to knock out the rear today. Long story short...what the heck am I gonna do to attach shock absorbers? See pics. Entire cross member looks to have been trimmed and bolted to body not frame (red circles). Shouldn’t it be part of frame (yellow circles). Anyone mind snapping a pic of the rear shocks for me?
Am i totally wrong in thinking the best fix is to fab a cross member, weld bolts for shock absorbers, and weld to frame? Trick is I’ve never welded bf but always wanted to.
Cheers!
