i need both front and rear cross members for a 68 van, the schofields exploded diagram is ****, and doesn't show the actual panel you'll be buying (and i'm worried it'll just be a ****** klokkerholm one like i can buy at gsf for less), and the just kampers ones appear to be for later bays (with the 3 holes in). i'm going to be running belly pans so don't want holes, though i suppose i could weld them up. does anyone reproduce correct early cross members? or am i going to have to have my own folded up?
lastly, the 'C' shaped fillet pieces that sit inside the chassis rails infront of the crossmembers that hold the metal cable conduits in place...... does anyone reproduce them?
 
the cross members on a 68 a different from all the panels available,the chassis rails are narrower so the ones advertized 68-79 need modding to fit,im fairley sure the late splitt ones will be the right size but not 100% i moded the bay ones to fit mine when i did them
 
thanks for your reply. the bay one i got for the front is an absolute joke. it's not even similar to the original one and os obviously designed as a bodge it straight over the top of the existing rotten one affair! i'll get some pictures tomorrow to better illustrate what i'm describing.
 
if i remember the ones i got for the 68 were about an inch to long it wasent untill after id modded and fitted them that someone hinted splitt ones fit a 68.they had all the daft cutouts in em aswell where the splitt ones dont.il have a look for a pic
