I have this kinda sorta hillbilly idea. I'm working with a 1st gen so I have a fully open "c" channel frame. I ordered an WFO torque arm kit. So I'll need a cross member to accept one end. Here's my hillbilly idea, using some 2" square 0.25" wall fallow the lower frame rail from rear bumper to the front door area. Drill it and put some 1/2" bolts every 18"-24". In my mind that would be just as good if not better than boxing the frame. Building off of that make a cross member right behind the 205 yoke. Build a cross member that's a bolt in style to my "sub frame". Build off of that to make a drive shaft loop.
Any of that make since?
Anyone see any flaws in my idea'r? I'm open to any suggestions. The torque arm is going to be in a rough environment, light single cab and a hand shaker .
I know this should be in the suspension area, but that's a dead area. If it needs to move then do it. Furthermore sorry for all the random threads. I'm not to a point to make my own thread to keep it exciting.
