I'm a bit jaded, as I just went through the complete replacement of both sides (entire length), torque boxes, and the entire front frame rails as well.

Part of that jaded sentiment lies with previous owners who didn't make my job any easier with every thing from angle iron to plate steel welded to the frame and for the floors... and tar plastered all over the frame to hide the wear and tear from the inspection station.

I guess it would depend on the extent of the damage. Heck if it is only a couple spots, or a confined square, and the torque box looks to be solid, then it won't be too big of a deal, provided you have the right equipment such as at least an angle grinder, and a mig welder.
