Make-up spacers and replace the bolts with ones of suitable length.
Attached are some foto's of the cross member under the bellhousing of my V8.
the problem i found while starting to fit a steering guard(APT)was that the front drive shaft hits the crossmember at full travel of the suspension,it has 2"lift and Terra Firma +50mm shocks.after removing the crossmember i found i would need at least 30mm spacers for it to clear at full travel.
My question is this?,is there an after market Xmember or do i modify this one myself.
i will be replacing the brake lines also B4 offroading as they look stretched also
short of lifting the whole thing up with a crane to extend the suspension what else should i look for B4 doing any Mild offroading.
Thanks in Advance
Paul

Usual process is make your own spacer.
I added about 16mm spacer using multiple sheets of 3mm al plate after my 2" lift. You'll need longer bolts. M8x1.25 x 30mm long is what I used.

I run Les Richmond Automotives angled spacer for my 3" lift kit. Check out their White Tiger range or products.
Terrafirma do a +2" stainless steel braided brake line kit which is good. Although with a 2" lift, the front lines seems to still be fine, just the back ones that are a bit short. On a mates D2 we fitted my old front lines to his rear to solve this.
