Here is the Fatman crossmember. I marked it for center and added some more reference marks. It barely is as wide as the frame and sits up against the frame. No gussets. Also a pic of the jack stands I put together. I'm not sure if the base is as big as I would like. I do not have the wheels and tires I would like to use, but I have a couple of Pontiac wheels for the back and a couple of old 235/75R-15 tires. The S-10 tires are the same size. Unless I am mistaken, They should be 5x4.75" lug pattern like I will need for the front. I don't mind digital devices one tiny bit, although I have a digital micrometer like Ogre that kills the battery in between uses. And on cold days may need a warm up to work.
