WTB - patch for rear floor
Looking for a piece of floor material. I need 4" x 24". Rolled edge on the 24 side as at the rear edge by tailgate would make me real happy. PM quote shipped to 29566.

Re: WTB - patch for rear floor
PM sent will have to check to see if I have a good piece that size at the tailgate end. How would a piece from the other end work plug weld the square holes from the carriage bolts and trim the bent leg if to long (just a thought)

Re: WTB - patch for rear floor
Just to be sure we are on the same page - - - I'm looking for steel Blazer bed. I have some rust and just wanted to patch in a piece. I'm not a welder so I'll have to get someone to do the job. I wanted to have the matching material. You mention square holes? What am I missing here? I don't see any holes.

Re: WTB - patch for rear floor

Re: WTB - patch for rear floor
On the tailgate end the corrigation stops right at the bend at the seat end it stops before the bent so it will not work. I do have a floor board that looks like I can cut a piece out of the tailgate end but will not know until next week leaving for a long week end tomorrow night and I have to pack yet.

Re: WTB - patch for rear floor
Appears that either end would work but I would prefer the back end as it would likely take less work to fit in. Thanx!

Re: WTB - patch for rear floor
I'll take a look at my 72 blazer I'm parting out. If it is any good I'll snap a photo.

Re: WTB - patch for rear floor
Looks like I can get you that. Just let me know where you want the cut so your ribs line up. And from which side.

Re: WTB - patch for rear floor
I need the area shown in the photo. Right rear corner. I "over measured" so if I get a pc 4 x 24 I can adjust to the ribs. PM payment info and thanx.

Re: WTB - patch for rear floor
Here you go as far a rust it is good but does have some dents the body was painted at sometime and they fill them in with body putty. It is at every screw hole that may have been their way of getting rid of the holes instead of spot welding them shut. I think once it is removed from the bottom structure it will be easy to flatten bad out and plug weld the hole but it is your call let me know.
