Replacing floor pan advice.

I am replacing the floor pan in a 71 beetle. I dont want to lift the body off. Are the steps as outlined on this page I found all there is to it??

yes, that's all there is to it - if you are an expert enthusiast VW body person...
It is MUCH easier to lift the body from the pan by a few inches on jacks etc. That is NOT hard and your engine etc can remain in place, although fuel tank, some brake lines and your steering and some wiring will need to be removed
