Thats so unsafe. Grind the rim away and fill the gap with silicon.

Can I cut the middle third out of a long wheelbase GQ and pop rivet the ends together to make a SWB??? Will 20 pop rivets be enough?

Can I put a Maverick body on a GQ chassis??

Q1, yes

q2 no you cannot :finger: there smaller

would that make the maverick body a better option for a winch challange truck?

also, can i build a competitive winch challange truck using maverick body (cause its smaller = lighter) and put it on a swb fj40 chassis (again weight saving) for under $350?

Yes the maverick body will bolt up to an fj40 chassis, but if you can find a chassis from the bj series it will save you lots more weight as they were a fibreglass/kevlar chassis.
You should find one for around $300 bucks at any wreckers :armsup:

i reckon that you should install it in spot where you can access it easily, this will make the chassis service/ oil change alot easier..

but in saying that allow room for the flux capacitor so that you will still be able to travel back and forth in time.

700 years of travel thats huge FLEX!!

No just use a 3/4 drive rattle gun and keep going till the wheels flush up on the hub.
