sure, i used a 4" ID pipe with a .125" wall....i cut 3" (or the width of the bottom of your frame), at a slight angle (cause these frames do a joggle, where the notch needs to go)....once i had the round peice, i cut it in half so i had two half circles....found the centerline of the half circles, and matched it up to the centerline of the rearend(post 89 kinda shows this)....made a mark around the half circles, cut them out, then weld in the notch...
as for boxing the frame there, it cant hurt.....do i think its strong enough and safe without boxing it, yes......
