Default Keping the mind straight

It is a 1970 rig for the earlier question. Congrats on the new 109 also.
Your removed flooring was a great shot by the way. It is very simular to semi trailer flooring and crossmember set up. I probably will go back in with oak trailer flooring but not the 1 1/4 that is noramall used - seeing as this has the wheel whells in it. After pressure washing out the interior it was a lake in this one also - floor drains are in the future.
We also use a product called FLOOR RESTORE in our older trailers. If you prep the floor and then lay out this product - be sure you never have to access the floor ever again. It is an epoxy clear coat that is very like polyurathane - it hold with the grip of God (no insult intended).
Been reading and looking at the pics of other conversions and just uterly amazed and what this unit has the possibility to become - thanks to all for their posting by the way - great job - salute.

maccus - Just walked outside and measured one of the trailers we are installing interior panels in and scuff - the crosmembers are 12 in on center and here is a pic of the floor screws we use - these take 1 1/4 oak flooring - after getting the flooring out (hardest part) lay in the new tongue and groove - drill 1/4 in hole just to the outside of center and run these in just a little past countersink - you can always use trailer flooring crack sealer (epoxy) to fill over the screws if you never want to access the screws again. I am sure there are others in the field as well that know these products. In containers - the flooring is 4x8x1 and is extremely hard - might even use this in mine when the time comes and then lay an overlay on top of it.
