Z-ing a frame (REAR)
Can you z the rear of the frame? What I am thinking is right behind the cab before the bed mounts. Then right in front of the rear bed mounts. I can draw up a sketch but just wondering if it can be done and any ideas on how.
Steel plate and gussets is what I was thinking. Sketch coming tomorrow. Alternatively, if I have to step notch instead, what do I do with my crossmember?
