So long ago when i lifted the jeep as many do i opted for the tranny cross-member drop kit mainly because i have the np242. In doing so i snaped 3 of the 4 studs that hold on the cross-member to the body. I tried drilling out the bolts with No luck and believe me ive tried a lot! I snapped every bit ive tried. the passenger side i had a shop weld on as the two studs were broken. the driver side one stud is in solid and the other broke during re install but holds.
My problem now is the lack of service ability. upgrading lifts, tranny cross member support.....
I dont have welding access outside of shops and they love to charge an arm and a leg for a fix. what do you all suggest or what have you done in this situation?
all i can think of is the body needs to be cut into and new tabs with nuts need to be made and welded in. or are their and aftermarket cross-members like claytons i should look into?
thank you for your help
