Question floor?

Have any of you taken your carpet out and put in either a full mat or rubberize it such as a roll on one,rhino liner or just a spray can?

I'm tired of cleaning my carpets all the time because of my job I use floor mats now but they still don't do justice I mean I have stains all over my floor so I wanted to know that best way of having a rubberized floor

I know there are direct drop in liners but I cant seem to find them any where..

I just need some help and advice!!!

Mine came stock with a rubber floor liner, and i think its great! Easy to clean. You might be able to find a similar piece for your truck in a junkyard, or look it up online...

LMC sells these for about $160 plus shipping and tax.

If you have the money, or can convince your workplace to give you the money like my buddy did, this is a good way to go. Pre cut and molded, no mucking around with bed liner or spray cans and what not.

+1, my 98 had rubber and was great. My 2000 has carpet and it sucks.

+1. You need the insulation. Regardless of whether or not you go with carpet or rubber.

+1 on lookig for stock rubber flooring. lmc is great. my friend has the stock in his 98 i have carpet in my 98, he was a beachbum surfer so it helped him out (now he lives in alaska so it helps with snow), im a grease monkey so everything is stained in my truck anyway Ive got heavy duty floor mats for when I went camping and/or do yard work and go to the beach. I've been contemplating getting the lmc one...when I redo the entire interior, dash, seats and all.

Don't miss my carpet for 1 minute , take it out camping/fishing/mudding , and when I get home I just use a bucket of water and a rag to wipe it out .

That looks great. I wish I would have taken the one out of my 98, before I junked it.

Basically , I just ripped the old carpet out , Patched a hole that was caused by the carpet never getting a chance to dry , Seam-sealed the patch after welding , then I coated the entire bare floor with spray on Bed liner , before installing the new vinyl without the insulation . I didn't want the insulation because it acts like a sponge .
