the press board type board under the rear westy seat? It was not in the best shape but I did put it down. I took all of the GL stuff out and installed the main floor, the 3 section type I made years ago. I did not use the GL floor tracks, I used westy floor tracks. They have different lengths, and you could cut the GL ones to suit if you don't have westy ones. I did that part over a year ago, so my memory is not that sharp. I'll look at my pictures again to refresh it. alistair On 2011-09-25, at 6:51 PM, craig cowan wrote: > Alistar I see you put the interior in without putting down the wooden floor > piece?
