I had to replace sections of the inner (floor) part as well. I cut the flange off. Then trimmed the back wall of the cab up another inch. That gave me the ability to weld on pieces for the floor so I was attaching good metal to good metal. I also cut it out in sections to prevent having problems with the wall sagging below where it should be. I cut out triangle pieces and re welded them to get the rounded parts. Sorry I don’t have any pic’s. I’m no pro but it turned out pretty good. I epoxy primed it after and seam sealed the inner part to try to keep dirt and moisture out. If you have more questions let me know. I’ll try to explain it better if needed. Good luck.

Thanks Vince, For the detailed suggestions. I'll probably do something similar. I like that you replaced the inner (floor) metal as well. I'll let everyone know what I end up doing.
