If the hardened steel cross members are welded to the stringers you will end up with the welds pulling away from the cross members in short order from the frame flexing. The weld will hold fine but the steel the weld is welded to will break away. This is why the beams are bolted to the plow instead of welded. Do the cross members have bolt holes anywhere close to the stringers? If the cross members have bolt holes to shove a bolt through you could weld a short 3" tall angle iron with a hole drilled in it to the stringers and bolt the angle iron to the cross member. Or set the cross member down on the stringer with the angle iron pieces already bolted to it and then weld the angle iron to the stringer. About the only other way is to bolt the cross members down to the stringers with U bolts but that would be too flexible and the U bolts would be sticking up somewhat. Is there a scrap yard somewhere close where you could sell the plow beams and buy back used 3x3x1/4 square tubing or 4x4x1/8 or 3/6 square tubing?
