Does anyone know the thickness of the outer long? My guess is 18 ga. but my calipers are dead so I can;t measure it.

Thanks,

19 gauge, its a metric thing.
Most use 18 gauge for structural and 20 gauge for anything else.

Wow that will make fabbing much easier. I have been using 16 ga for most things so far (that I couldn't buy as a panel)

Seriously, 18G is fine for structural?

I've been doubling up 16G in the structural areas I've had to recreate--like the wheelhouse rearward of the jackpost and the jackpost area itself.
