The front suspension on my truck is pretty rusty. Im contemplating buying a new front cross member just because the rust is just concerning me for the longevity of the truck. I plan on driving this a couple times a week and on the weekends. Where the front spring fits in the pocket is very rusted. I was going to cut what I could out and weld a plate to reenforce what is gone. This truck is a budget build just don't have the money for a new ifs front end. Is there any aftermart company's that sell the front suspension crossmeber? If not I will buy used just didn't want to deal with the same this if I can't find local. Thanks.

Yes but they are pricey. Your best bet is a used one or donor truck.

That might be my only option is to find a donor truck. I don't want to do that but might be my only option. Ive look for used parts near me and there is practically nothing all the parts I've found local are doors, hoods, and tailgates... I might check out a swap meet might have some luck there.
