Longitudinal Box Frame
I asked this question earlier, but it was buried in a post on bumper storage, so I'd like to try here.

Does anyone know if there are likely to be any openings in the main longitudinal box frame tubulars, besides on the exposed ends at the front and back of the rig?

Actually airstream frames are a c-frame. They are not boxed in except on the tongue

Mine is a 70s- nice to know they upgraded the frames😎. I had to weld mine to make them square😁
