I knew my floors were bad but when i pulled the carpets up it turned into a nightmare. Since im riping my floors out im also cutting the wheel wheels, and redoing my rockers with 2x6 1/4 wall steal. Its alot of work and goin to take me a little while. Im goin to post also of pics and try to make this thread the best i can. Bare with me isuck whith computers.

Sounds like you have good plans for the floor and rocker replacement, I'm subscribing

You've got plenty of work ahead of you. I think you're going to need more tools and coolant.

i started the build 2 weeks ago. but this is the first time i got a chance to start a thread. as of now the floors are on hold while i build my rockers. im using 2x4 stock as extra support for the 2x6 rockers .they are being welded to the unibody and cut to a 45 degree on the end to lap under the 2x6 and be capped for a clean look. i finished the rocker/ sliders last night they are cut on a 45 on the ends and capped also. oh and im using angle iron on the backside of the rocker steal to have a extra lip to go into the floor board area so the floors can be welded on to

Wow, you went ***** to the wall with floor repair. I just cut out the cancerous metal and welded in some new stuff for mine. Then again, I'm 17, broke, and have no time because all I do is work...but now I have floors. Keep up the good work
