So I ordered the DG Panzer plate but don't have a front cross pipe anymore

For those who have ordered it and don't have the pipe, have you worked out a solution? If you haven't eventually I'll let you know what I work out. --This is a low priority for me at the moment, compared to everything else.

What happened to your cross pipe? Have you replaced it with something more

lightweight? I'm interested in replacing mine with something smaller diameter just to make oil changes easier. Seems like it should be possible to fabricate something that has the same rigidity but takes up less space.

It may be a couple months, but my plan was to

Customize something strong, and lightweight that wouldn't interfere with access, but is also adjustable sort of like an adjustable strut tower brace.

Once I get "everything" else done I'll tackle this project, and let you know what I come up with. (I want my lift and all other items done first).

I threw the original away, stripped bolts, and it really got in my way while I was on the road driving back from CA, with my other issues, it had to go. I wanted to go ahead and order while there was a discount.
