Re: Construction with gussets and bolts

We do that. More on the upper than the chassis, but we have some removable panels there as well. We specifically used bolts on our stacker this year rather than rivet because of concern for fatigue / rivets getting looser over time. Not sure I'd have that same concern with a chassis though.
