Does anyone know if the rubber flooring sold through USA1 Interiors for 81-87 regular cab is precut/fitted? Or is it just a roll of generic rubber flooring that I have to wrestle into position?

pretty much all of the rubber flooring sold is oversized. It generally fits but needs to be trimmed and warmed up to lay in to the right shape.

Try these guys:

I bought a vinyl floor mat from them and was impressed by how well it was molded - fit pretty much perfectly. This isn't it, but the image gives you an idea of the detail they put into matching the mat to the contours of the floor:

You must be registered for see images attach



First the seat, door sills, kick/scuff plates and seat belts are taken out.

I did it on a hot summer day. Layed it out on the driveway tar for a few hours to get it nice and malleable. Had a big rubber mallet and a heat gun on hand to help form it to the contours of the floor.

They give you a bit of extra material on all sides that needs to be trimmed.

I used adhesive spray to anchor the jute down to the steel floor. When I had the jute smoothed out and trimmed, I attempted to lay the vinyl.

I tried to lay the mat by myself - bad idea! I strongly suggest at least one helper. Get two if possible. Because trust me - this matting is heavy.

Somewhat related, do any of the companies offer the rubber floor in red?

I've ordered a few carpets from stock interiors and they all came in acc boxes. I assume the rubber floors are probably the same for what it's worth. Quality has been pretty good
