Too long of a run. About 3" too fawkin long. Cut, slugged, and welded. Will get a 1 1/2" .120 tube intersecting there to toughen it up as well. And the crossmember will get notched and boxed. I just haven't got my notched and boxed in the mail yet.

That looks badass! I like the square tube in there... shit is a lot easier to cut precise angles into and use in certain places/circumstances.
