I have taken out the engine, gearbox, diff and prop when I upgraded my engine, the gearbox and engine are out again now as Im rebuilding the gearbox to heavy duty spec/long 1st gear

I have never once thought it would have been handy to able to remove the floor!

Rivnuts also need a large hole in relation to the diameter of fixing that goes into them

Im happy with my 1 piece ali floor thats sikaflexed and riveted to my chassis, seems to be doing the job just fine
