    I'll preface this by saying I've already searched :)....trying to mount a rear gas tank in the 6....gonna need to redo the crossmember. 52" looks like it'll cover width, can someone measure stock height please?
    Thanks, Jim S.

    I just measured mine so I would know a before & after dimension with my BDS suspension kit. I'm running 33" tires so I realize this isn't stock, but maybe you can do some subtraction with whatever diameter tire you're running. From a flat concrete floor to the bottom of my rear crossmember with tired stock springs was 22 5/8".

    I'm sorry I think I poorly worded my question....I need the actual dimension of the stock rear crossmember....my 6 doesn't have one and I need to have a metal shop fab up a reproduction
    Thanks, Jim S.
