I seem to remember that the NASCAR guy's frame rails were 2x4 shaped. They
used plugs of 2x4 wood to space the weight, i.e. a weight, a plug, a weight, a
plug .... this way you could move the weight forward and aft as needed.

If you use either square, rectangle or round tubing you could make a pair of
plugs to insert from either end to center the weight. Round tubing could have
threaded ends for ease of adjustment. You could make caps for square or rect.
tubing. How about having brackets that bolt to the frame so you could remove
the cross member for filling/empting.
