2001 2wd xcab, changing oil and see rusted cross member in front from frame to fame near front end suspension. Cant find what those two bars are called so I can replace. Seem to be less important due to being frame to frame but I am sure they are there for a reason. I have 195k miles and still going strong. Thanks in advance. Frame diagram or something?

 

Cross members or torsion bars?

 

I will try to get a pic of the bars in question. I may just end up repairing by welding, hopefully there is enough good metal left to weld. I dont think they are torsion due to the fact they bolt from cross member that supports trany/back of motor to front of frame. All rigid connections.

 

I was totally wrong on the location of the supports after review. They run from frame forward to hardware on front end. I removed and welded a piece of rebar to reinforce. Will continue to look for replacement.
