Yes, it's a structural member that supports the rear tub so needs to be sound. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If its gone in the rear face then get the member with legs on it cos you will likely need the legs as well. Also makes em easier to fit.

From what i can see it's only gone on the external face just below the side of the door both side's , so hopefully might get away with cutting out a sectoin and welding abit in , then i think before next mot i will get a new cross member on there.
