Do you want cheap or do you want quality? those floor pans you linked to are the cheap ill-fitting flimsy light gauge floor pans from overseas, the very same floor pans most every other vendor sells, if you want a quality good fitting heavy gauge floor pan made in the USA go here....

Flashback F100's - USA Made Steel Made Repair Panels On This page will be only USA Made Repair Panels,, not like others that carry those Black Tawain cheap repair panels

Wasn't trying to be harsh but just wanted to steer you in the right direction, i'm a big believer in doing things right and doing them only once.

I bought mine from dennis carpenter reproductions. Nice and thick, well formed. The dennis Carpenter ones didnt have the press wrinkles you see in some of the other panels. I would recommend them to everyone.

The Cab mounts I bought from dennis carpenter are almost exact duplicates to what ford made originally. I have both versions(factory ford and dennis carpenter) on the shelf (i just cant pass them up at the swap meets when i find them) for my 78 f100 project if It ever makes it out of the storage trailer.

I would NEVER use the slip over junk. do it right, or have it done right. PERIOD.

It's because they're the very same cheap floor pans from Tawain that every other vendor sells, JBG sells the same crap floor pans as DC, along with LMC, BOTP and NPD, Tabco is the American manufacturer of the good floor pans and you won't get those through Dennis Carpenter.
