Good point. And then we freaks add to the problem by mini-tubbing our cars and cutting right into that weak point. When I looked at cutting into the frame rails, I said F'that and had 1/4" steel plate put into the thin area. This may come back to bite me, as now the flex will be transfeered to the weak, non-reinforced frame rail area. I guess if that happens I'll be calling Todd to fax me a template...
