    Scouts....another vehicle with a boxed frame.

    On another note, I think some frat daddy is driving that yellow one.

    And on another note, The reason the whole welding across the frame came up, was when welded some brackets to my frame for my bumper we just put a bead along the top and bottom length wise down the frame. not across the front of the bracket up and down. it has been very strong, with 4 grade 8 bolts, in well fitted holes, and just the 2 welds per side. Granted the guys who did it were VERY good welders. Chain or strap break way before the mounts.

    mild steel, it won't hurt it. Look at all the body mounts that are welded to it from the factory
