Re: Floor pan/Rocker replacement

Not to throw too much at you at a time, but I also only removed one front fender at a time while doing this. My "theory" was that the front fender on the opposite side of the side I was working on could act as a cantilever to help hold the firewall in place while cutting the floor on the work side.

I agree with Huck about only removing as little of the floor pan as neccessary. The original structure is rigid (even when there is an incredible amount of rust!) Just make sure you get rid of the cancer. It's a difficult thing to know when to stop...

There are also some parts that aren't available aftermarket, I'll see if I have some pics of them.

Good luck, Rg
