Alright guys, I'm finally getting more of the rusted through floorpan cut out, but I need to know it this piece is structurally significant.
(IMG:http://mcchicken.homeip.net:2080/pics/2003-04-26/CNXT0009.JPG) It's almost rusted through, and I'd like to cut it out, but I don't know. If it is important, can I weld in some tubing a little in front of it and cut out what's there? All I know is that this is a huge project, and I'm really sick of scraping out all that tar shit. |

If you're going to cut it out, make sure you mark carefully where it lined up. When I replaced that section, I was slightly off, and it made seat adjusting a real bitch.
A BFH fixed my problem... but I could have been more careful. Live and learn, Rusty |
