Title: Update on the new Floor
Post by: Andy 2 on March 21, 2015, 09:40:28 pm
Well Im closing in on getting the floor installed. It has been quite a process, Thanks to Jor for some advice, While waiting for the tile I decided I was tired of having to have my keys with me every time I wanted excess to the motor, so I replaced the key lock with a T handle and it works great and if I was ever to have a fire I would be able to get it open quick. Anyway I posted some pictures

I picked it up at Shiptons here in Billings, I think is was 12.00. I had to get a short piece of square stock to fit over the shaft and I drilled and tapped the end of the shaft # 10 Philips head screw.  Shiptons is a Farm and Ranch store.

Craig, Those are not stock the po did those when he had the Coach painted,I have seen them at the places like NAPA and the larger truck parts stores. Yeah I got tired of having to pac my keys with me each time I wanted in the engine bay, seems to work well.

Andy,

The steps look good. Ours get so dirty and the rubber mats keep falling outside. Koda got separation anxiety and ate a little out of one of the rubber mats.

Nice!

Andy, very nice with your stair nose trim. Glad you didn't use any tacky gold metal
