Now to create something in the right rear to hold the rear of the side wall & the corner fillers. I had added an additional rib in the left rear, however the right side had the horizontal support for the spare tire carrier. I decided to leave that bar in place and work from there.

I picked up a 2"x48" piece of mild steel, bent it to match the inside contour of the right side door rear hinge pillar. Butt welded the new bar to the upper roof rail, then placed the bar flat against the horizontal support. It got welded there too. Then I bent the bottom of the bar into a 90* and ran a screw thru it into the 3/4" subfloor.
