Replacement floor panels
 

I am cutting and welding some rust spots on my CJ7. Looking for new floor
sections that I can weld it or cut up and weld in the sections I need.
Local places want too much money for them, who on the internet has the best
prices for tub panels like that? JC Whitney has them for $40 plus shipping,
anyone out there cheaper? Anything too look for as of quality or other
ideas?

Re: Replacement floor panels
 

go to Omix-ada,com

find a local distributor at there web site. I replaced the complete pan in
my 83 CJ7. great quality and beats anything you will get from JC Whitney
and the likes.

Re: Replacement floor panels
 

The online catalog at omix-ada is not working. From websites all I can see
is a entire floor section. A front section is both sides, under the feet,
and under the seats and sells for $250. Does that sound right? All i
really need to to repair some smaller holes under the feet where carpet
trapped water. Does omix-ada make floor pan alone?

Re: Replacement floor panels
 

I've used the floor pan material from JC Whitney.
Pro: material is aluminized steel for rust resistance, metal is
one gage heavier than stock, panels have the various necessary
bends (which is why you buy them rather than flat sheet stock!)
Con: There were lots of variations in the original body stampings
so the repair pannels are not a perfect fit. You will need to
tweak and fiddle to get them to work.
Net: If I had to do it again I would.

Whatever you do, you will have to fight the rust that is already
there. Even though the hole may be small, the metal around it is
always thinner and weaker than stock material. Result is that
when you cut back to get to some solid, weldable base metal, your
2" hole is suddenly a 12" hole.
