Default F/S: Cross Beam Adapter

I order custom cross beam adapters so I no longer need this one.

I would like to get $20 for it. If you live in Greensboro, Charlotte, or Raleigh I can probably deliver it to you at some point. The center shaft seems to be 1-1/8" in diameter.

I'm curious as to which custom ones you ordered? My car is squatting and I've been looking for a cross bar that'll work for my low beast.

I order this pair of custom C6 cross beam adapters from Smith Fabrication.

They weren't cheap but I only have to by them once.

The pads swivel.

First, to fit under the front end, you would need a long low profile jack.

Also, the jack saddle hole would have to accommodate a shaft that is 1-1/8" diameter or you would have to put a different size shaft on the cross beam adapter.

It will work pretty good for the back end with a regular length jack but I would still think that you might possibly have to run the car up on some boards to get more clearance to use a jack with the cross beam on it.

I never used this cross beam because the jack I have didn't have the right diameter hole for it to fit.

I was going to weld on a new shaft to get it to work with my jack but I bought some custom cross beams ($250) instead.
