That's what I was thinking. Cut a square out, then just start measuring for my main hoop near the top of the frame rails so I can ensure I have enough room and nothing is lopsided. Then once I get the main hoop bent. Figure out where my downbsrs will attach. Tack them in place. Drop the whole assembly down and then weld the down bars. After everything is tacked drop it down again. Weld all around. Then reweld the floor plates back in and then attach outriggers to main hoop and a pillar bars
