    Damn…well I guess at least that’s an option and not having to replace the full frame.

    Hello everyone, I installed a rough country 6 inches about a month ago, and I cut in the crossmember, and I did not encounter any problem in use, and I feel that it is very normal and there are no problems. Just keep the piece that you will cut in order to put yourself in safety if you change Your opinion and you removed the pieces after a lifetime. You can return the truck as new and weld the piece that you cut

    Its been done a bunch, its a crossmember. Yes it can affect it and if you hate it sell the truck or keep the piece and weld it in, its really not that big of a deal it has been done before. Highway is fine, my buddy wheels his with us on a 6" fabtech and its handled it very well surprisingly. Put it on enjoy the truck and move on.
