Are the rockers and cab corners also rusted? You'll need to cut away all the rusted metal to the point of where you have something solid to weld/screw/rivet to. How are the cab supports?
Click on the link to see some photos of a patch I did.It's a little extreme ,but you can get some idea.

the cab corners r fine but i figure i should go ahead and do it all so i have that piece of mind and i have the cab off the frame....the supports have no rust visible to me.....but the pics helped alot...i will just get the floor panels from this website....but yeah thanks pugsy
