Thank you for a totally contrarian viewpoint. i see it. I hadn't considered going this way, but the additional stiffness and lower weight is spot on. A couple of questions for you.
1. How do you make a smooth transition from the 2x3 to a 2.5^2 weld-on receiver?

Thanks for the idea.

Stick to 2x3 .085 if you like for the main inside rails and outside framing, i. e. the bulk of itmnswamp wrote: Timbren strongly recommends .125 as a minimum
