ggdad1951 Posted January 26, 2019 Report Posted January 26, 2019 I got an ask a while ago to trace another template for a member. Pulled my floormat out and unrolled it. Sadly its starting to crack badly so I decided to make a plastic template for future use if anyone wanted a trace. 3 Quote
Dodgeb4ya Posted January 27, 2019 Report Posted January 27, 2019 The dimmer switch and floor shifter/ E-Brake hole can be in different places B1/2 and B3/4 series. In the parts books they only show one part# for all 1948-53 which is very questionable. Quote
ggdad1951 Posted January 28, 2019 Author Report Posted January 28, 2019 it's a reference for sure. The shifter hole is best guess as mine was pretty hobbed out from years of use. BUT it's a starting point at least! Quote
JBNeal Posted January 28, 2019 Report Posted January 28, 2019 At my last OEM job, we had several parts that we found were cheaper to purchase from a vendor in bulk and "trim to fit" was put into the assembly line work instructions than to order and stock separate parts...the guys on the line fabricated their own trimming templates for specials and had them hanging on the wall at their work stations...I'm guessing these floormats were handled similarly back in the day, with some variation on fit and finish from cab to cab Quote
