Whats the best way to support a bug floorpan..

Once the body and the wheels are off?

I just have some large bricks under the framehead and the rear arms at the moment, just not sure if that is the best way to support it.

Cheers.

As long as you show you care about its feelings, ask it how its day at work was every now and again, give it a cuddle once in a while.....thats the sort of support it needs 😉

Otherwise a pair of timber saw-horses from the hardware store will work a treat since you don't have to bend down so far to work on it.

:beer

lol, nice one Al.

yep stick it up on some saw horses easy to work on that way

I suspose your replaceing a floor pan half ???

If you are taking the front beam off you could get two equal lengths of 4 by or similar and drill holes in it at the same spacing as the holes in the beams. then just bolt them on. I found this stops the pan sliding around as much compared to having it on saw horses at each end.

Yeah, Im stripping the pan ready for a sandblast and powdercoat.

Great idea about the 4 by bolt on!

My bodys taking up the saw horses..
Ive got my pan sitting on a milk crate up front and two jack stands out back.. mmm, sore back goodness... :cussing
