Here's my thread on my belly pan thread with all my ups and downs along with piccies!
Under belly pan... - Toyota Nation Forum : Toyota Car and Truck Forums

I did cut down and insert 2x4 studs into my crossbeams fer better support. I think in the future I will have to setup a rubber bushing in the crossbeams to allow fer better flexing without straining the crossbeams.

You will have to provide enough support if yer gonna hang the Coroplast in a horizontal position as it will not have enough support over the 4' width.
