Looks really good! I'd suggest that you tie the rad arms x-member into the beam x-member. With the bolts running parallel to the frame and only attaching in one plain the rad arm mounts can still roll in the frame if you have s bad hit. That was the hardest part of repairs from my roll.

It does but the way it secures it can still rotate inward. That why I suggested tying it in in another point.

Be no means trying to critique the work. After not finishing mine before doing the damage I did just trying to save someone the pain I felt with.
