Update - Boxed the T.A. CrossMember

TA X-Member is boxed. Turned out better than I expected. Welds had good penetration. Holes cut for exhaust. I still plan to box in at the frame rail a little bit. I should have enough steel plate left over to box in the frame rail behind the power steering gear too. I don't think our lowered 2wd trucks have the frame cracking issue like the the 4wd trucks do but whatever, cheap insurance.

3 drills and 2 batteries later, the holes are cut
