Looking again at your Chassis , the trans may be low enough to sneak a flat bar over the top of it with a slight bend in it to tie the upper chassis rails together below the cab floor at the front cab mounts .
The trans cross member looks close enough to the front cab mount to aid the upper flat bar to keep lower chassis rail from twisting . This combo could be an alternative to the original cross member .
