Replacing Wood floor in rear
 

How hard is it to remove the wood flooring in the rear of my sub and replace it with something...I'm thinking som thick aluminum?

This is a good question. I wanted to do something with an inlaid bow tie in the wood or something really slick.

I was wondering if an oak bedwood kit would work. Like from a shortbed stepside?

Since the floor is used as a structural part, and it is tied into the body/floor/wheel wells/support frames, it can be a project. We
removed the floor out of this Burb once it was of of the frame and hanging by two chainfalls and it was still a project. We cleaned up the old marine plywood floor and reused it as it was in very good condition. We also painted it before reinstalling.

If you want a wood floor for show,I would overlay the stock floor.You can use the laminated flooring or thin hardwood.I did a 56 ford panel with a wood overlay and polished hold down strips.

and what just mount all of the hardware for the overlay right into the original wood flooring?

We used 3/8 thick red oak.It was installed as a floating floor.We used 1/8"x3" steel strips that fit width ways on the floor.Attatched T bolts,by weld, in the spacing needed for the hold down strips.The strips where like the ones for a truck bed.layed the boards over the 1/8' steel strips.We then used polished SS angle at the front and back to hold the floor .the SS strips where layed lenth ways and held to the T-bolts with polished SS cap nuts.No holes had to be drilled in the floor except for the front and rear angles.
