Floor Pans

(1/5) > >>

75JOE:
Should I use pans from one of the vendors or try to fab from sheet metal.  Kelly Sheet Metal quoted $54.00 for a 8x10 sheet of 18 ga. and will cut it down to rough sizes I would need?  Floor will be covered with vinyl or carpet so appearance will not be an issue.  I realize that without the ribs there may be some flex. 

I have never done fabrication, and do not currently have a metal brake.

Also, didn't some of you use Raptor Liner?  If yes, how has it held up and are you happy with it?

JustaFordGuy:
I made my own but the vendor replacements will be easier. I only made my own so I could justify buying a plasma cutter, metal brake and new welder. ;D

I think Bret used the Raptor liner and it turned out nice but he isn't finished with his Bronco so not sure how it will hold up long term.

75JOE:
Thanks.  Will probably go with the vendor pans.  Will get a new MIG for the process.

Any other suggestions for DIY liner?

lonesouth:
I used POR15 and then covered with peel and seal.  I've got some POR left over and it is yours if you want it.  I keep it in the fridge, per the directions, so it should be good.

JustaFordGuy:
Hey Joe, How's the floor pan project going?
