| | | | | | Anonymous Unregistered | | Anonymous Unregistered | I bought a sheet of 14 ga to use as a replacement floor thinking it would be thick enough to support the seats and will run additional support bars/channel under the floor for more support. I may cut the floor out of another cab to use instead though. I have not decided yet. I think 16 ga can be used but you will have to run cross supports/channels underneath. If you space them correctly these can also anchor your seats. | | | | | Joined: May 2004 Posts: 40 Junior Member | | Junior Member Joined: May 2004 Posts: 40 | the only part of floorboard that is rusted is on each side off the gear shift( 4 speed).......i am buying the fiberglass hump section over the gear shift, i welded in 16 gauge last night and cut my 2 1/2" hole for brake fluid check over the master cyl....turned out real good......all i did was remove all old patches and weld in floor pans....
