[Tigers] Subject: Cross-members

[Thomas Witt]

Jim,
 There is a significant difference between the two crossmembers. The most 
prominent being the scallop cut at the front and the mounts for the steering 
rack (the Alpine used a steering box). I hope you can balance the fun of 
Summer and the desire to go through the front end.
Tom
