Yeahi understand that bit, however bolting the extrusion to the box section would pove difficult without the need for brackets along the extrusion. The way i was looking at it was i would be able to bolt directly into the extrusion bu going into the crossmembers to add the nuts.
Something i havent mentioned, and i apolagise is the fact i would of been bolting the cross members onto the top of the frame. for ease of removal and any smimming that possibly would of been needed...

I would have thought bolting the 9 cross pieces to the frame would be just as much hassle and a real pain to get them all in the same plane.
If you drill access holes on the underside of the top beam you will be able to use a T Bar allen key to bolt the extrusion directly to that quite easily.

Ditch those vertical supports along the centre that just drop to the middle of a beam below. Instead triangulate them back to the feet.
Or have crossbeams that are stiff enough by themselves.
In other words, proper support or no support.
