I'm seriously considering making a panel to fit in the corners so the floor is flush there, no pockets to hold crap and make it rust. Then I'd just leave the area where the cab support meets it unsealed for drainage, or even open it up somemore to allow cleaning. Any thoughts from the board?



Looks good. Just seems a little bit ghetto riviting a floor in... Whats the process behind that? If i saw a truck i was gonna buy and say the floor rivited in, id probably turn the other way...
