fitting new floors (traveller)

Post by parahandy 15 »

I am in the process of replacing the floors,sills etc.(one side at a time obviously) I have completely removed the old 'uns and cleaned everything up. Should the floors bear directly on the crossmember and welded to it, or should there be a gap, perhaps filled with sound deadening stuff?

The floors should be welded directly to the crossmember. Anything else would leave the shell less strong than it should be.
