Bartamos, right on again.
With all the work involved to do it right, you could probably get a complete frame kit from these guys http://artmorrison.com/homepage2.php

Personally I think all the frame mods to these old trucks are dangerous. The frames are of all riveted construction so they will move and distribute stress. Welding here and there will either concentrate the stress in the weld area or transfer it else where. The factory spent many hours on vibration fixtures to get it right and safe. Cutting that frame and welding on junk ruins it period.

Kicking self for selling off my Taskforce trucks.
Still looking for an LCF or conventional big bolt in decent shape.
