I completely agree. I totally missed this when we did our initial frame design.

For rules compliance we will likely be going with some 1/4" plywood to widen out our upper frame.

Another cleaner looking option would be to make threaded axle support blocks that rest in the C-channel and eliminate the need for a bolt head or nut to sit outside the frame
