floor pan what what

Hey guys!
Long story short... I need a new floor pan for my 72 4x4 Blazer. Have any of you replaced yours with any aftermarket ones, and from who? Is this going to be a huge project?
Take care,
Andrew

Re: floor pan what what

That is a common aftermarket patch panel. There are quite a few places that you can get them from. The brand patch panels I use is Counterpart. I buy them from "The Truck Shop"; which is a store owned by Counterpart. Another good place to get parts from is "Classic Parts" in Kansas City, MO (they are a site supporter)

Counter part doesn't make their own patch panels. My Personal preference is Key parts patch panels, I believe they're running Top banana as their retail side now.

Doesn't need to be a huge project, just don't fold over to the "might as well" disease and you'll be in and out in no time.

How far into the door opening does it go, if at all?
Any pics of the floor itself?

Most of my patch panel come from Tri-Pro, Jon's a vendor here and has always been really helpful to the blazer guys IMO.

Sorry to say it, but I think Tri-Pro is out of business.

I'll have some pics tomorrow! The whole floor pan needs to be replaced. LMC has one for around 400ish. Anyone removed and installed the whole floor pan?
stay frosty
