I would look at some of the jeep speed rigs to see what they did. Mostly ppl strengthen the front where the steering mounts, and front suspension mounts, and where the middle of the rig is. I have seen quite a few use 1/8 or 3/16 plate steel with holes cut into it to increas weld area. I used the exo cage approach and truggied it.

head to naxja, do a search on sleeving frame rails

You'll see the basic premise, you'll use angle or channel and form it to the uniframe rails, then plug weld the hell out of it to the original.

It also provides a very good base to attch rock rails/cage/suspension stuff too.
