carpet

Post by takehikes »

does most of the carpet available for our bumps cover the floor under the seat too? In other words the whole cab? Anyone also make the carpet to cover the gas tank if you put in bucket seats?

My carpet, from ACC if I remember correctly, covers the entire floor and had about 1’ extra along the back to run up the back of the gas tank. No idea why it didn’t stop at the back of the floor or come all the way up the back of the tank.

Glad it covers the full floor. I'm considering putting buckets in and know I'll need carpet to cover the tank so curious how that gets handled.

Here's the factory bucket seat tank setup but nobody makes it aftermarket https://m.fordification.com/forum/viewt ... f932a87f40. I intend to fab a retainer out of stainless flat bar and use some interior carpet to match my carpeted floor, when I get there.

Interesting. I hadn’t seen or paid attention to how they addressed behind the seats for a bucket layout.

I'm moving my gas tank to the frame but I still want to carpet the back of the cab behind my bucket seats.
