Default Re: rotten boot floor

I know you'll all laugh at this but when I did mine I just cut out the rotten bit with a grinder , painted it then stuck the new floor down on top of old with silicone ,screws and pop rivets .I couldn't get the seatbelt mounting off so I just cut a hole and slipped floor over it. It passed mot to.Had to adjust with big hammer to get seats to lock back down. I'll do anything to save a few quid.

Hello There, I have the same problem, not a lot of money, and a lot to do, i have just bought a rear floor pan, 58 pounds and two inner sill's, and a inner wing repair kit, and a rear body mount, and a intermediate cross member, the list goes on, you would be safer getting the propper stuff, i too have children, six of them, i'd sooner be safe than sorry, best of luck. Fred.

iv decided to get the proper parts and do it properly . iv been given a quote of £150 to do it all including the side of the boot floor upto the wheel arch and a small part in the wheel arch ( thats not including the parts ) so iv just got to sell the fiesta now to pay for it .
is there anything else i should look out for when its being done ?

Hi Darren, when you remove the bootfloor you'll probably find that you need both floor crossmembers and both flat plate tensioners. There are two part numbers for the crossmembers as listed below, don't get one of each (which is what you ultimately need!!) get two of part no.ALR8519
and grind off the plate for the brake hose plate. It's cheaper to do that!!

Hope that helps, if you need anymore info please just ask,

Cheers
Dave

Hello Again, Last week i bought an intermediate cross member, from our local landrover spares robber, it cost me £41 inc VAT, yesterday i went to MM landrover spares, on the A38 between Droitwich and Worcester, i boght two main crossmembers and a intermediate one, they cost me about £45 for the three, MM do online ordering, and you get 5% discount for ordering online, they are the cheapest i have found in the country, why not give them a try. Fred.
