[Tigers] Subject: Cross-members

[Rollright at aol.com]

Hello,
 
Been a little frightened of late as I haven't ever had my cross-member out.  
I want very much to do all I can to do the Fulcrum pin fixes and the like.  
Sandblast the thing, check for cracks, and all.
 
But, to do it in season would be, well, using up precious New England  warm 
weather drive time.
 
Here is the question: can you use an Alpine cross-member, and if different  
from a Tiger, do what mods need be done (and of course have the clear benefit 
of  time)? Seems they must be darned similar.....or what?
 
And, are they easy to find? I'd imagine if different from a Tiger, Tiger  
cross-members would be hen's teeth, but maybe Alpine ones aren't.
 
Best regards,
