Tweaking the cross member

I spent a little more time tweaking the rear cross member over the last few weekends.
Firstly I modified the holes to suit a smaller hitch pin, as I decided to opt of the standard size pin to make my system more universal.




Here you can see the cross member which has been ground down so all the edges and welds are smooth, it also has the recovery hitch in place and is all polished up


Here I have put in the cover for the receiver




And the finished job sprayed with undercoat.



I also welded a tube through the drop plate for the new sized hitch pin. Next up is the wiring loom.
