The civvy frame rails are boxed at several hi stress areas but the military frame rails are boxed all the way from the firewall area to the front bumper not just at the steering box and spring pivots. With that huge winch I would not be surprised if more of those CJ5 frame rails were boxed in by the prior owner.
