Started floors

[Volksnut]

It sucks to repair rusted out floors, worse yet when they've already been done....I'm assuming the new floor panel is tacked to that body mount?

I'm not sure on the answer to your question but others will surely know. It would be good to see you document your sequence of the floor repair (if it's not too late). Did you use a spot weld cutter on the floor edge seam at the edge of the step?

No, I'm not done cutting yet. I'm replacing an already patched floor which will be continued into the step area so I'll be cutting farther down. I'm getting pictures as I go.

you definitely had to cut a lot out but i think most of us here had to do the same thing just in different degrees of repair..i had to replace both sides on mine you could Fred Flintstone mine when i first picked it up

The floor pan is independent from body mount. It bolts to it and has washers, spacers.

ahh yes, knew there was a little extra room for an extra rubber mount

Little update, passenger side is done, had to add quite a bit of metal beyond the patch panel, and remember this isn't a concours truck, just a daily driver.
