Boxing the Frame
I've got an extra frame, and I've been toying with the idea of boxing the one on my truck (when time and finances permit).
I need some advice from folks who've done it. Did you overlap the flanges or butt-weld them? I'm assuming that there needs to be pipe or conduit welded in between the webs to keep pass-through bolts from compressing the metal. What should I use for that? What's the best surface prep/protection for the inside of the box? Any tips, tricks, or experiences welcome. T.I.A.
