I'm getting ready to redo my steel bedfloor. my factory bedfloor is rotted in the usual places - overtop of each crosspiece. So I'm going to cut strips from my donor bedfloor & weld them in. I'm aware that repop cross pieces are expensive & I was realizing that the reason the bed rusted out in the first place was because the cross pieces are open at the top.... I figured that making my own crosspieces from square tubing will eliminate my rust problem & make it stronger overall. I just gotta slip down to Brunswick Steel & get the right diameters.
