I need to patch up some holes in my floor, what guage metal should I use? Also, is there anything I should beware of? Thanks.
 
Never did a Jeep - but when I was in school I re-floored a
MGB-GT with .093 thick aluminum sheet (6061-T6 I think). It
worked great, was easy to cut, bend (with a 36" bend press),
drill, and pop rivet. It may be a little heavy - but it worked great.



Good luck!
 
I used 18 Ga. steel....

I tried to do it right. Here are some pictures. There are more on my sight but it is very disorganized. http://home.bellsouth.net/p/s/community.dll?ep=16&groupid=40672&ck

I had some big holes to take care of!
 
Ghost, I have smaller holes than that, but there are plenty of them! Thanks for the info., I was considering around 16 or 18ga., so I guess either will be fine. Thanks again!
