Replacing Floor Pans, ...here we go! Options

[CptTripps]

Ok, so I've decided to just replace the entire floor, and KNOW that it's done right. I have a couple of questions. I couldn't find a thread that specificly addressed this. Tried a few searches, and got an IIS error. (I'd be happy to park the site on one of my Unix servers for free.) Anywho...

#1 - Anyone done this and had success? I've read the article on the Bird site, but I need pictures. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif)

#2 - Should I get the Front-Back or Left-Right type? I plan on doing the whole thing, but I don't have a rotisserie, and need to keep the car on the jack-stands. (I may have to take it higher to get under it.)

#3 - How much 'lip' did you leave to spot to? Or, should I put it in from the top, or from the bottom?

You guys in Cali get all the breaks...you have tons of people close by that can come 'help' AND you get to drive these year-round.

Any advise/help is ALWAYS appreciated!

Use the search feature of the site. There is a lot of good info from past threads. Check this thread out below. It's not specific to floor pans, but it might help ya out. Spot weld cutter thread

I always try to search the archives first. I run several forums for other hobbies (as well as owning a couple of ISPs) and am ALWAYS annoyed when someone just blindly posts a question that was answered a few days before. I manage a few that I have the user check a box that says "Have You Searched" before they can post. (Handy feature actually.)

That was a great thread and I read it this morning. Did you ever get a smaller (1/4") spot cutter?

My garage heater has been broken so I haven't had a chance to get under there and look, but I'll have it back tomorrow and will get a chance to get under there and take a look at all of this.

Thanks again for all the help.
