Spooner,
The body was attached with 1/2" bolts and 1/4" thick rubber spacers between the steel body mounts and the aluminum rails on the box. The body mounts were outboard the frame rails but there was still wood between the frame rails and box floor. (Camping Dutchman, my guess is that these two together was enough to keep the corrosion problem at a minimum?) Unless I make serious changes to the box I can't see how U-bolts would work. Here's the overdue picture -- if you look closely you can see some of the bolts sticking down still have their rubber spacers:
