They also seem like there is about $15 worth of plate steel they weld together to get a $150 part. While I am not the most advanced metal fabricator, I am entertaining the idea of cutting and replacing this portion of my frame. Surrounding the "T" seems pretty solid and would be able to work with it. My intention would be to make a new portion of the frame out of plate, butt weld it to the factory frame with another piece of plate I would plug weld the two together with. Does this sound like a decent method for replacing that portion of the frame? Thanks- 72 Challenger - will be sublime, little 340 904, 8 3/4" - Under Construction
