Hi

I used Rubber Roof Membrane material both for the under floor and between nose and cab. Check with a commercial roofing contractor the type that does large flat roofs. Take photo what you are working on and generally they will give you enough scrap roofing to do 5 trucks. If you want the sticky stuff it is what they use at edges it is about 6" wide and comes in rolls. Again they gave me the end of roll.

Cheers Phil

Hi Ryan et al,

Another good source of webbing as used under floorboards is Spotlight haberdashery stores in Australia. I bought identical webbing to the original webbing under my floorboards from them. Only comes in white but a packet of green dye also available at Spotlight solves that. I just sprayed them with Lanotec after installing on floorboards and they should last forever and prevent squeaking. Total cost $15 for webbing and dye.

Spotlight is also a good source of eyelets and snap fasteners which may come in handy for vehicle restorations.

Cheers,

Thanks Jacques.

In other news today I snapped a leaf spring just near the mount point. Right rear. Bugger.

How did you manage to snap a spring, Ryan?

Looked like she was half way there with old age and I just did the rest with a couple a bumps as I nudged the chassis to fit between all the other shit cluttering my shed.

Some recent fab work on the spare wheel carrier.

I've got 3 POL can holders on top of the toolbox but I still have two spare bolt holes. What are they for?
