That's the correct photo. I asked them about the cab mount depression and they replied that it didn't come with one. I'd suggest using Kenny's floor pans, they have the correct mounting hole and depression.

I bought a set. These guys are somewhat local to me too. They're good. No matter what you'll need to do a little bending. Are you talking about Exline? If you want ridiculous prices....go ahead...spend 350 on floor pans. If you're a good welder or know one...buy the ones you looked at.

I don't see the sheet metal gage they use for making these.

C2C Fabrication, out of Detroit. Their website lists the floor pans and outer rocker/step assemblies at 19 gauge steel.

They list the pans at $70 a piece and the outer rocker/step at $30 a piece.

I have a set of these pans and rockers that were mocked into the parts cab I bought. The fit appears OK, but the Exline pans are listed at 18 gauge, and the based on the pictures, appear to go a little higher on the both the trans hump and toward the firewall, as well as having the dimple for the mount.

Personally, if I hadn't purchased the parts cab that already had new sheet metal partially installed, I would have purchased the Exline pans. Between the increase in thickness, more accurate forming, and the fact that Exline reproduces a whole lot of parts that are not available anywhere else, the increase in cost, to me, wouldn't be a deal breaker.

I have used the exline before and they worked out pretty good. of course they required bending and forming at the front. any aftermarket part like that will. I will not be buying the Detroit pans with no dimple. the hard part of making floor pans IS the dimple. thanks for the input

I'd always opt to support Kenny (Exline). I know him personally and the pricing is essentially parts & labor. Built by them (Mopar enthusiast) in America so your money is going right back into the hobby.

When you consider the cost of materials and the amount of time it takes him to create the panels he's definitly not in it for the money plus, every part made has the discriminating eye of a true enthusiest/ hobbiest insuring the most acurate reproduction and fit as possible. One of the few (very few) left that isnt made by the lowest bidder using the cheapest materials and cheapest labor available.

Hats off to Kenny!!
