I added five 2x2 floor braces and 1/2 oak floor for now. I put a 20 gauge sheet of steel in the tailgate (cuz I have magnetic signs for my business) and two 1/8 by 2x2 angle iron in the tailgate. The gate latch works smoothe as a factory latch. I added two more uprights on the sides. I also have 2 hitch pins holding the front of the box down and can tilt it 90 degrees if need be. Thinking aluminum sheets on the sides. Taking it in soon for front end work and alignment then I'll go to town on the bodywork and paint.
