    Well, It's been a while since I pulled the body from the frame and I thought I'd post a pic of the tub after the floors are cut out and a new subframe welded in. I had to di one side at a time so the tub wouldn't collapse :rofl:

    Rather than hat channel, 1" tube steel was convenient and available. It should be plenty strong.
