The Crossmembers are for the SSR and TBSS. These will replace the existing Crossmembers under the oil pan. These are made with Chrome Moly Tubing, Laser Cut Plates and TIG Welded to keep the weight down and enhance strength.
Benefits
1) Will allow the use of a C6 Factory Rear Sump Oil Pan for the SSR and 2WD TBSS. (SSR's have some fitment issues with the C6 Oil Pan when using Kooks 1 7/8" headers. There seem to be two different batches, the most recent has a primary tube that is in the way of the oil pan. The primary tube will need to be moved over)
2) Lighter - Stock Crossmembers = 15 lbs - New Crossmembers = 12 lbs (12/15 reduced 4/5 = 80% of stock weight)
3) Will Make Service/Replacement Easier - Steering Rack, Transmission, Starter, Headers, Oil Pan.
4) Driving/Stability Benefits – Added strength and front suspension support at the lower frame.
5) Will allow the use of the Simple Engineering Stiffening/Skid Plate - http://shop.simple-engineering.com/category.sc?categoryId=18
