I am doing this on my current build as well. The way I am tackling it is I create multiple notches in the rail and tack weld at each notch until I feel there are enough to keep the roof sheet tight to the side. After that I will remove anything else and weld. I have a pulser module on my tig that will keep the heat minimal. I do have a roll cage though That will be tabbed in everywhere.
