trailer crossmember

[jetblue319]

well i was able to find a trailer store that will cut a galvanized "V" crossmember to size of old crossmember and weld the old "C" shape attachment to it. (ALL FOR ABOUT $140.00) The old attachment are in good shape. Now another question, i believe the welding will affect the galvanized treatment, in that area. i read somewhere about cold galvanized paint?? Anyone has any news on this
thanks for all the inputs
