SWB body onto a LWB chassie? SJ

Post by Tarmac »

If one was to purchase a lwb chassie how hard would it to be to line up the body mounts? I would assume the front few wld be OK but how many would be missing towards the end... I also understand the SWB cab will need to be shortened to an xtra cab at the least.

Front clip, front body, and the main mount under the step in the floor line up. Rear ones, well depends on where you cut it as to what you need.

I have just done a body cut to mount on a LWB chassis and with 300mm between door and back wall I don't think I will need any extra mounts, although I am modding what will be the rear one/floor for extra strength.
