Pulling floormats

[jimoshel]

One thing I think Pete is in arrears for for not mentioning. I just pulled the mats in my '87 XJ.There was over 8 inches of snow leaving 2 inches of water on the floor. Pulled the mat and got hit by the most gawd awful rotten smell I have ever experienced in my life. I think they use formaldehyde in their manufacture. Gonna go clean the cesspool now so I can get a breath of fresh air. Oh yes. The floor did have some lite surface rust, easily taken care of. PULL YER FLOOR MATS. Good advice. incidently, a soaking wet floor mat weighs over 500Lbs.Welll. That's what it felt like.

It's advice that's sig worthy. :D

:agree:

 

Finally pulled the carpet out of the 86 to swap in a better one from the JY. I have a few new drain holes.

 

 

I'll be glad when the 88 is back on the road so I can get rid of this one. :shake:
