[QUOTE="X53Gunner, post: 190989, member: 1442"] OK took out the small live well that comes in the 1542 and made one that is 3' long 15" wide and 12" deep. I would have gone bigger but am going to run pvc pipe through the seat for rod storage. The only welded points are the side up and down seems as it was bent on a brake using one piece of aluminum. My friend tried to tig them and found out he wasn't so good with such thin aluminum so I said not a problem as I will just silicon seal the welds inside and out. He still wasn't happy but like I told him you will never see them once its installed..LOL . Now on to plumbing it for the level drain and live well pump.
