The rear crossmember on this truck supports the rear shackle mounts, but is in the way of the new fuel tank I am installing. So I decided to redesign it a bit, and move it back about 3" at the same time. I left the original ends, and reshaped them a bit to fit the new crossmember made from 2 by 3 tubing.
