What do you guys use....

What do you guys use to repair the typical rusted-out frame damage, right above the rear coil spring? I have access to some frame metal from gm a-body cars, and I also live close to a metal supply company, but I was just wondering if there was a preferred method other than finding a decent frame section? I have to do this while spending as little as possible Lol (don't we all?)

I thought about having a peice cut from a template for the side of the frame, plate the inside, and doing the same for the bottom. Also boxing it in and making an x-brace while I am in there. The peices that go from the frame to the crossmember are also shot, I don't know what I should use for those.

Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance!
