Frame Flex Reduction - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

BATurbo · 03-28-2009, 03:04 PM

I've got my 70 C-10 frame on the rotiserre right now and when I go to rotate the frame upside down, I can see a fair bit of twisting flex going front to back. Does anyone have any past experiences with stiffening the frame so the flex goes away? I'm just starting to go back through this truck from the ground up and I'm leaning toward boxing the frame, but I don't know if I should add additional frame members before completing the frame boxing. Any info would be appreciated.
