Re: ClusterTruck; because that’s what it is

^^I hate it when I do that. I created at least an hour more work for myself.

Here's an example of my fitment technique with the floor support. I kept the old one I cut out and used it for a template. I cut the new one a little big and flap-wheeled it to the right size. As it got closer to the right size, each time I fitted it I bolted it in. It shifts around a fair bit when you tighten up the fasteners and that can give you the too-big gap problem. This is what I wanted to avoid.
