Honestly, why nobody had come out with this sooner is a mystery to me as everyone I know has got a trasmission cross member beat to all hell. Two thumbs up go out to Full-Traction for making this super beefy HD cross member

It's the same cross member as the long arm kit without the arm bracket. We're working on the upgrade for this to our long arm system. It may just be welding the brackets to the cross member.

Is this crossmember similar to that offered by Rubicon Express?

Does anyone know if this skid will work with the Rubicon Express crossmember? I would assume that small mounting modifications would need to be made, but do the bends in the skid allow this to fit with the Rubicon Express crossmember?

Thanks

From the RE lift I looked at in the Mopar booth at EJS. It appeared to be the same as the factory cross member with lower control arm brackets.. So no this will not work with RE long arms cross members.

Thanks for the reply, this looks like a great product nonetheless.
