Roughed in Floor Pans Today

Ordered two of the platforms from Laural Mountain Mustangs about a month ago went in perfect had no problems with them.

Do these weld in on top of a new floor pan? I have new floors, and was wondering how the seats bolted up.

Does anyone have a pic of them installed?

Yea they sit on floor pan and weld in, then seat tracks bolt to platform. BUT be sure of location before welding in.Some have moved the platforms back a little bit for more leg room. I would bolt seat to platform then place on floor and adjust mark it, pull out unbolt seat and place platform back in and weld away. I still have passenger side to do on mine,But waiting for carpet before i finish it.

Yes they fit fine, they are just 1 1/2 or so too tall

As long as the lost headroom isn't a factor for you they will work.

platforms from Laural Mountain Mustangs are 2 inches maybe 2 1/4 inches tall at the most, measured the one i have installed in car mailed other one to a buddy so he could use it as a pattern to make a set.So with that being the measurement then the correct platform would only be 1/2 to 3/4 of an inch in height?? WOW

Heres what I get on the drivers side from my fastback at the seat attaching points you need to add an 1/8" to the measurements because of the ruler i used..

I measured just a little over 2 inches at the front on mine,so about roughly an inch difference,thats not to bad. Thanks for the measurements, I wasn't sure on them since when i got my Mach the PO did a little floor work on it and didn't put the platforms back in it ::goodjob::

The pans look fantastic. I was just looking at the same pans on the Cj ponyparts site. We pulled the carpet up last weekend, and well I knew the both back ones needed done but what do you know the front has got to be replaced also..Now I am not a welder,nor do I have 1 handy so I'm getting quotes from locals that will do the welding. Hope it's not to much tax time is coming.
