Floorboard help

Got the truck home today, took off the bed and the frame actually looks pretty good. That's the good news. After some poking and prodding I decided to take the cab off of the frame as well...I was told that I didn't need to worry about cab mount rubber since it was all good.....LOL...in reality there was no rubber on the truck...completely gone,
I Cleaned up as much around the cab as I could before starting to cut metal....now I realize I need a complete floorbard including the rear cab mount support. I have new cab corners but I am in trouble here guys. Any ideas on where I can get a floorboard? I dont need the seat support since I am going to put bucket seats in. Got the cab up on sawhorses so I guess I am ready to start rebuilding.

Re: Floorboard help

Thanks Joel...I noticed that was for the second series, but I will call them to see if they also have the complete floorpan for the 47. This site ROCKS. Thanks again...

Re: Floorboard help

I did the firewall and floor boards from *****in Products. Take a look through my build thread and I think i have some pictures of me working on it. If you need some more let me know and I can post them. Actually I only did the front half but it was pretty straight forward.

Re: Floorboard help

Thanks Guys, ordered the parts this morning...almost 1500 bucks so I have blown my wad until 4th quarter bonus...guess there is enough work there to keep me busy until then. The nonly thing that spooked me a little was the floorboard listed was for a 49-55...what are the differences and can I make that floorboard work?

Someone correct me if I am wrong but I think its because the 47-48 had the gas tank mounted under the bed and it was later moved to inside the cab for the 49 and up models. So the floor pan will have the mounts for the gas tank, but otherwise should work, maybe one of the AD guys can confirm.
