I have heard of people making/cutting the crossmember in half, then re-attaching both halves (be it welding in situe, or having pre-welded on tabs and bolting it together) once it's back under the rear bodywork.

i am going to fabricate one myself. sadly postage costs put me off. i have a "friend" who builds truck beds and is great at sheet metal press. we can do it easily using 3mm sheet and have it galved here. i am thinking of doing it a half inch shallower to help
installation but since i will remove the alu upright part... it can drop from above. |

Did mine by removing the second row floor and sliding the new one in from there. Was quite easy, just need to watch the fuel lines.
