Center Floor support replacement

So like alot of us my floor support is rusted out pretty bad. i found a donor cab that had a perfect factory one so i cut it out. does anyone have any insight on changing this? I have had two people tell me to basically cut it into 3rd's and re-weld it together in the truck. seems like a lot of crap to go thru to me

I would just replace the sections that are bad. It will be lots more work to get the whole cross member out. Lots of spot welds to cut out.

I agree with Brian here. If you cut out the bad ends it would be the same as cutting it into thirds anyways.
