that's an awful lot for just one side. You're probably looking at a minumum 45-50lbs chassis once you add in the rest of it. Is there anywhere where you think you could cut down on weight? One area I would suggest is not using such a heavy plate. 2386 has run chassis similar in build from around 2010-2014. We found that as long as you supported it correctly (standoffs strategically placed throughout the "pontoon") 1/8th plate will do perfectly fine and hold up to the forces seen in a typical frc game.
