Metal gauges have a tolerance and what was refereed to as 18ga when our jeeps were built is now about 17ga. I used 16ga when I built my floor to give just a tiny bit more material to weld to. It worked out really well.

Paragraph T-1 on page 249 of the Willys Jeep Universal Service Manual says all major body panels are 18 gauge steel.

What thickness metal do you use for replacing body panels such as the floor?
