32 Front crossmember

[Turdytoo]

I have a frame 18-125XXX which was not reinforced in the rear but it has had a front crossmember replaced with a reinforcement front crossmember. A friend of mine has a NOS front crossmember that is drilled for the reinforcement but doesn't have one in it. Since the reinforcement in mine is broken I thought I would make a couple unless someone is already doing it or has some new ones. My other question is did Ford sell the reinforcement seperate? Mine was riveted in so maybe mine came from another frame.

I doubt that the reinforcement was sold separately. The reinforced cross member became the only service front cross member available for '32 frames starting in late May, 1933.
