Torsion bar crossmember install

I hear ya about leaving good enough alone, but I'm really anal when it comes to doing things, I'll have a nice new floor and an old pitted crossmember, it will drive me crazy after doing all that work, especially when all its gonna take is drilling out a few more spot welds, I'll definitely take your advice about doing a little bracing just in case

Hey you're the one doing the work so if that's what you want to do then go for it! It won't ever be any easier than it is now, you've already done all the spot welds for the floor. Just make sure you take a bunch of measurements and pictures so that it ends up back in the right spot. Test fitting the torsion bars before you weld the floor back on would be a good idea.
