    Dongas----When you channel a car, the floor sets on top of the frame . You have to create a "well" in the floor on each side where the door is. The sides of the "well" extend down on the outside of the framerail to where the original floor would have been before the car was channeled. When you open the door, you don't see the side of the framerail---you see the side of the "well".

    excellent suggestion. But should I still weld the 16ga piece to frame and then weld the well to the body where the doors sills are?
