Go to your local steel supply house and ask to see their drops. You pay scrape prices (at least around here you do) and they normally have lots of great material you can use. You have to take what they have meaning if the sheet is 30x40 and you only need 30x20 you get to have a second piece.
As for the X brace I would tie it into the original frame and box around it. That would be best for sure. Probably not 100% needed but as long as you are there why not?
I think you will be OK with not completely disassembling the truck just be sure to check and re-check that everything it level and square.
Have fun...
