Chipper,

Might be worth a call to Newell, I know that on frame rail chassis motor homes the frame rails are tempered and shouldn't be welded. With the semi-monocoque chassis on the Newell that may not be the case, and it could be less expensive to have the cracks welded than it would be to do the additional interior work on the '87. Just my 2 cents.
