I was asking these questions a month ago, and decided to just buy some 2x3 tube and go for it, this is for a mud drag truck, as mentioned check every measurement lots and make sure everything is level and plumb, I also tacked eveything and had a more experienced welder weld everything up, not quite done yet but making progress, I am happy with how it looks, now I just hope it will hook and go straight>

X2 what Mr. Cartwright said, tack weld everything first. And when you do go to do the final welds, don't make long passes and try to weld a one joint all at once. Short passes and move to another area. A lot of heat in one area will pull it so far out of square and level, it will make you go crazy.
