Re: HOW TO: One piece floor pan install

Got a chance to do some more work today. The first thing I did was get the cab on its back. Then I decided to add more bracing. Fore anybody doing this, i would recommend additional bracing as close to the floor as possible. After I got the floor out, the cab is a bit flimsy, but honestly, I think this is going to happen no matter how much bracing you put in. In this pic, you can also see the slice I put in the floor near the rear wall.



Here is the additional bracing I put in the cab from the firewall to the center supports:



I also made use of the threaded holes in these cab supports:



The only thing left to do was remove the spot welds where the outrigger meets the firewall supports:





And shes OUT!



Anybody need a patch?



Thats it for today. Hopefully I will be able to work on it tomorrow.
