CKZ03 Posted February 20, 2014 Share Posted February 20, 2014 Not much else you can do without it being in the way of removing and installing the new floor/rockers. Take your measurements & write them down and go to town on that thing. You've taken about all the precautionary measures anyone can do there.

LostnFound Posted February 20, 2014 Share Posted February 20, 2014 I'd weld together the two braces you have that make an X where they cross over one another and touch. It will only take a minute and will assist even more with keeping it from moving. Just my 2 cents. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leghome Posted March 2, 2014 Share Posted March 2, 2014 They were predicting 6 to 10 inches for tonight thru tomorrow evening but now have scaled it back. I can only hope we don't get to much I am so sick if seeing that white crap all over the place. COME ON SPRING Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
