[QUOTE="Ol'89r, post: 1344586, member: 17212"] Just weld 'em up. If you know somebody with a wire welder, it would be easy to close them up. Just apply a bead around the edges a little bit at a time, allowing the metal to cool between beads. Your frame is made from mild steel and will be easy to weld. Just take your time and keep the heat down. When you're done, grind it smooth. Your idea of cutting a piece of tubing in half and tacking it over the holes is also a good idea. Especially if the holes are caused by wear from the frame bottoming out on the ground or rust. If this is the case, the frame tubing may be very thin around the holes and will be hard to weld up without blowing through. If you 'Glove' it with another piece of tubing it will cover the holes and add strength to the frame. Just my $ .02 [/QUOTE]
