Are you using the multiple dot weld technique advised by MPandC
here? Weld a series of well spaced dots and planish them to remove the shrinkage, then repeat till the whole butt seam is welded.
I see that you're using the weld clamps that force you to have a space between the edges. You'd be better off without them, clamping the pieces together with minimal to no gap.
Another technique that's been advocated by some is lap your patch over the original metal and then use a cutoff tool at a 45 degree angle for a short distance, weld that section and then cut some more. I haven't tried that but I have welded some pretty lengthy patches in my bed sides and was able to deal with what minor warpage occurred by selective stretching and shrinking.
My first attempt was the bottom section of the front panel.
