Re: C10 Floor replacement

The full floor replacement and toe board replacement is a major undertaking that should not be taken lightly.

The person / shop you choose should ask you for not only the cab and the parts, but also the doors and hinges...these are essential for the body guy to align the outer panels and the cab corner pieces...

I am doing one of these at the moment and I have over 15 hours in it so far and have only just finished bracing the cab frame with steel tubing...

I estimate it will take me another 20 or so hours to replace the floor itself an the cab corners, then maybe another 10 hours for the outer skins...

If you have never welded anything before, I would suggest either a good bodyman or shop...or perhaps try and find a better cab...maybe one that doesnt need a full floor...if you decide to get another cab, I might be interested in the floor unit....as I have two other cabs to do this summer...

I am retired now, but seem busier than I was when I worked full time...

Have fun....
