just measure a piece of 2x6 - 3/16" the length you want it and bring it to him. any half decent fabricator should be able to figure out how to tie it in
what you really want to do is add middle frame stiffeners, then tie the new rocker into the frame. very stout very important upgrade
just google search "2x6 rocker naxja" or "2x6 rocker cherokeeforum"
plenty of write ups on this. make sure you show him exactly what you want
