What are everyone's thoughts on 4-door M35A2 crew cabs ?

Speaking on structural integrity, are the two cabs merged together reinforced adequately ?

There's been several 4 door Deuce's made up here. One even here in Washington state.
They look really cool if done right and seem to be very structurally sound. If I had the body work skills to do it, I would do it to my Deuce.

if done right structure would be more than adequate. I think they look cool but the juice doesn’t seem to be worth the squeeze. If I was looking to regularly haul 4 people I don’t think the deuce would be the vehicle of choice.

I had an A3 that did not build but did some repair on before selling. It wasn’t done properly and you could feel the floor flex slightly when you crossed a ditch on an angle. View attachment 889474View attachment 889475View attachment 889476
The whole cab must be solidly supported above the frame since the Deuce frame flex's a lot. Remember the Deuces frame is "not" hardened so it flex's more than a normal truck chassis will. A three-point mounting system seems to work the best also. Two in front and one in the middle in back.
