Think back to those old cars with box section chassis, how did they get round the problem? SImply drill/bore out a hole in the box opposite the nut so a long socket or socket+extension can be passed through the hole withthe nut held in the socket with a dab of grease.. If the rear of the box isnt accessible then cut a slot in the wall of the box sufficient to get a spanner and nut through. Third option is to create captive nuts by drilling/tapping out a piece of steel that is a sliding fit in the box section (only really works for narrow section). A fourth option, if the wall of the box section is thick enough, is to tap it directly. And a fifth option is to cut a rectanglular slot where the hole should be, slide in a tapped piece slightly narrower but longer than the hole and weld in place.
