What happens here

After verifying the fitment, remove the crossmember from the vehicle. Place it on a stable welding surface. Fully weld all tack-welded seams, ensuring strong and complete penetration. After welding, the crossmember is ready for installation. The final product should be a robust and correctly sized crossmember capable of supporting the 4L80E transmission.

Goal: Fully weld the modified crossmember to create a strong and correctly sized component.
