Now this plate will be welded to the frame and the nuts will be on the inside, a hole will be drilled to clearance the nuts and the plate will sit flush on the frame and welded all around.

Then the other plate will be welded to the crossmember and allow it to be bolted in

Then played with some ideas for the next crossmember, and since I wanted to have one at the sweep up, and one 6" back from the ujoints I needed to come up with a good looking way to do so, instead of three round bars in a row, so I added another X
