So I picked up a rough ‘95 standard cab. I’m lowering it and it’s in pieces with the bed off. I figured do a c notch while it’s apart. My beams are on back order so I have extra time. I have some 1/8” stock. Will this be strong enough as long as I fully box the frame? Or should I get some 3/16” or 1/4”? Thanks much, Jason.
