Laminating chassis

Post by hillbilly »

Thinking about strengthening up the chassis on
my GU ute before I stuff it. What are the recomendations on plate length and gauge? Also at which points on the chassis would benefit more from this?
Some photo's would be handy.
Cheers.

You need to be more specific. Is this destined for high speed racing, rock crawling or a rolly polly car?

Thinking of the OBC as well.

Why do you feel it needs to be strengthened?

Unless the chassis is rusted out, it shouldn't require any extra attention other than bracing the rear coil towers which tend to tear off the chassis.
