I couldn't find the big floor pan doubler washers for the cab mount bolts so made a set of dies to make what I needed. If these are available elsewhere then ignore this. Pictured is 18g but dies can handle 16g or even 14g. Not in the parts business so will not set up on demand but would make extra ones the next time I need some. Let me know.

Looking at my '51 it is hard to tell what gauge they are and whether they are spot welded due to paint over previously corroded metal. I would want a heavier gauge, like 16g or 14g. Evan, I bet we could come up with something else for you to duplicate if you are looking for a project! It is cool you can do this, nice job.

Since the washers are now being offered by Carter and Filling Station I'll buy them; cheaper than making them.
