Again, thanks! | | | | Joined: Mar 2017 Posts: 25 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Mar 2017 Posts: 25 | I have a new complete floor pan for my 49 AD . the front corners where it gets welded to the door post it has an indentation that looks like it is where the post should fit . However it does not measure out to the right spot. My original was all rotted away in that area and i dot see any proof of it being there on all the pictures or actual trucks I have looked at. Thanks, for any assistance.

Pictures of what you are describing would be very helpful as well.
Do you know the vendor/manufacturer of the new floorpan? | | | | | Joined: May 2015 Posts: 11,026 Housekeeping (Moderator) Making a Stovebolt Bed & Paint and Body Shop Forums | | Housekeeping (Moderator) Making a Stovebolt Bed & Paint and Body Shop Forums Joined: May 2015 Posts: 11,026 | Buck, If you're wondering what the height of the floor should be at the front pillar, check out the Factory Assembly Manual. That will give you heights for various items on the front pillar reference to the floor. As far as horizontal location, hang the doors on the hinges and adjust the gaps before welding the floor in place. The repop rocker panels I used (part of your floor assembly) do have indents at front and rear, but I found they didn't exactly line up with the pillars.

That was my thought, but i was just hoping someone else had ran into this issue . I bought the pan from rock auto clearance a few years ago and after a divorce and move just now starting to set every thing up to work on it. | | |
