OK, finally done with the C-Notch and hitch boxing. My buddy welded in the 1/4" boxing plates. Like he said, my welds aren't pretty but they are strong. I painted the inside of the boxed area with Chassis Saver before welding. I had to mount the bump stops before we closed up access, the CPP notches had the wrong size holes so out came the angle drill again. '

I cleaned up the welds and painted everything with Chassis Saver, great stuff, like POR-15. Not perfect but OK for a hack working in the garage.
