Thread: Cross member from 95 Roadmaster in 1937

Tweet

The 95 Roadmaster does have a full length frame. At the rear axle it matches the 37 frame pretty close, but frame gets much wider at the center and at the front is also wide.
Can't use the frame because the 37 body is much narrower at middle and follows the frame closely.
The front fenders actually bolt to the frame as well. The 95 frame will actually fit on the outside of the 37 frame at the front axle. My plan is to cut the 95 frame behind the front spring pockets and in front of the anti-sway bar mount. Then knotch the 37 frame to allow the 95 cross member to fit up. The 95 crossmember will actually be located behind the 37 crossmember and I will probably leave the 37 crossmember in to support the radiator. See the attached picture that shows the cross section where the green is the 95 cross member and the gray is the 37 frame.
1) Would it be better to take all the knotch out of the 37 frame, or take some out of each?
2) Is there anyone who has pictures of a crossmember that was welded in like this?
Thanks
