1989 MJ. I finally got around to pulling out the carpet. I was expecting a little rust, not holes on the drivers side. Turned out those brown stains on the carpet were not from my boots. :{
Looking for advice on the repair from sopmeon who's gone through this. I'm thinking trim up the rusty holes, cut and bend some sheet metal to cover the area from the inside (maybe outside too?), and use either epoxy or a polyurethane adhesive to attach and seal it up. I have a MIG welder, but think I'd just end up blowing holes in the sheet metal. After that, wirebrush anything else, paint with rust converter then bedliner everything. Sound like a plan?
