A longitudinal member assembly having a primary loading direction, including an interior longitudinal member and an exterior longitudinal member, and a method of assembly, is disclosed. The interior longitudinal member has a boxed-section shape including a first side and an opposed second side parallel to the first side. The exterior longitudinal member has a boxed shape including a first exterior side and an opposed second exterior side parallel to the first exterior side. The interior member is telescopically received in the exterior member creating an overlap area, the first exterior side includes a first side welding hole, and the second exterior side includes a second side welding hole. A first side hole weld extends around the first side welding hole, and a second side hole weld extends around the second side welding hole. The first and second holes are parallel to the primary loading direction.
