Has anyone ever seen or made cutouts in your floorboards and put in plexiglass to be able to see the rocks beneath you? If so please post pics. I have a friend up in Washington that did it to his samurai and it was pretty awesome, he also had the whole undercarriage lit up with lights for night crawling. And no they were not neon's lol

I've heard of and seen glass bottom boats, but never a glass bottom Jeep.

No....jeep is a uninody..dont

If you reenforced it right I think it would be ok. Would add some weight but would also be sweet!

AoA

you'd need to order some 1/2" plexi, 1/4" wouldnt be strong enough imo...

Gee oh Dee

Doesn't matter as long as you keep the frame rail like it is.



OP, from a guy driving around with LITERALLY no floors, its not worth it. Not much can be seen without the floor missing.

Check my build thread if you want to see what can be seen through an invisible floor.

i run lights on my wheel wells for the night crawling, but a plexi bottom. sounds like a bad idea. my .02

1. Needs a good good seal. Plus I give it 13 months of just road driving and it will be so scratched you can't c threw it

Definitely not very practical but it might be cool on a show rig. lol Just thought I'd see what y'all thought.

Gee oh Dee

What needs a good seal? The floor? Why?

Again, I had NO floors, and drove and wheeled for almost a full year and never had a problem. Rain, snow, mud, nothing gave me issues.

as soon as you get some mud/dirt on it, you couldnt see a thing

Gee oh Dee

Rain X or lots of cooking spray?

UsmclovesXJ

Lolololol I would do that

BadThad

That's a COOL idea! It'd be really neat when going down a stream!

I tried that cooking spray thing years ago because everyone said that it would make mud easier to wash off. Not true. If anything it made it harder ... everything that got any type of heat under there turned into a frying pan. The mud got so cooked that after months of trying I finally had to paint over the parts I couldn't get clean.

Bad idea.
