thats pretty stupid,could't water get in there and make it rust from the inside or something lol,so you guys have no ideal why there,there?if there completely useless then i'll probably weld them closed and get some yz blue paint.i need to paint some boot rub areas anyway

If you pan on welding them closed I would do the classy trick first. Take some oil and pour it into those holes. A decent amount. Then weld it up. The real deal would be to rotate the frame to coat the inside in oil to prevent rust. However, there is no reason to not weld them. They are only going to cause rusting from the inside out.

LOL, or you could just ride it real hard. Or just remove enough parts that you could jostle it about.

or you could just fill the frame with helium
