The wooden floors in mine seem to be plywood from the factory

I think he means the area behind the seats but in front of the wood part. This area is different than trucks.

Yikes-I missed the word "between". Sorry to have been absolutely no help whatsoever.

That is going to have to be fabricated from 18 ga. sheet metal.

I was wondering the same thing, I need the passenger side floorpan. I see that it is squared off verticaly from the seat to the roker, not tapered like the trucks,apparently for the step to access the rear seats. Have not seen a replacement specific to them yet, as well as,not finding a replacement complete quarter panel. I assume you make quaters out of bedside panels?

I just fixed that area yesterday.

Are you talking about the inside trim piece, or the sliding window frame?

There are no replacement panels specific to these Suburbans and Panels. You will have to use the parts made for the pickups and modify to suit the Suburban or Panel.

As luck would have it, I finally found suitable quarter panel peices. Classic Truck Parts in Kansas City offers a front and rear half panel for the bedsides that is 23" tall and seams in the middle of the wheel opening. All I had found until today was the lowers 8-10" and the wheel arch-I didn't want that many pieces. As discussed earlier, they will appear to be the LWB style WO but that's ok for me.
BTW nice sheetmetal work Captainfab!
