30964780222_large.jpg 4-15-09:   My plan to take care of this is to weld in some 10 gauge steel plate. :D  This will add strength and give me something solid to weld the front floors and the replacement front cab mount braces to.  So I grabbed a couple sheets of tag board/poster board (whatever you want to call it ) and made a couple templates. I transferred the templates onto a 2' x 4' sheet of 10 gauge steel. Then I cut it out with a jigsaw. Cutting 10 gauge steel with a jigsaw takes forever!  :black_eye: :mat:   I'm going to cut some windows out of these plates so I can get into the areas if I need to. I'll add some trim pieces to cover the holes. I had to cut a big notch out of the passenger side plate to clear the fresh air vent for the heater.
