Time for new decking. Also time to upgrade the flimsy crossmembers over the tires. I'm thinking channel laid flat will be better than the angle that's there now.

I think I'd use a piece of 2 inch 1/4 wall square tube there

No tubes! Anything that can hold moisture/dirt is a big no-no. It'll hold salty dirt and rust out in no time. I need to use something that is open on one side. I have some 5" channel that should work if I lay it flat.

Fill them with fluid film. If your really concerned about that use solid stock!
