Hi all - after cutting a section of the frame out would 1/4" thick angle iron be suffiecient reinforcement? I plan to use 2 pieces therefore completely boxing the cut area at least 20" in each direction then plug and stitch welding the angle to the frame rails. Think this will be strong enough?
Just watched a bunch of high school kids shorten a VW Bug frame on Monster Garage and all they did was weld the seam after sliding the two halves together. I didn't see any reinforcements, so I was wondering if what I want to do will hold since their flimsy crap did.
Thanks
Mike
