Hey guys, I got a 2002 Ram last week and I just picked up the fold flat floor for the back. Of course when I get back home I look under the seat and realize that I don't have the middle bolts. I have a straight bench seat and the guy that I bought the floor from had the 60/40 split seat. Does anyone know if there is an easy way to install this thing or should I just put it on eBay? Thanks for the help.
Take your seats out and mount the tray with the 4 outer bolts. Then line them up how you want them and drill the four inner holes through the floor pan and use nuts and bolts.
I was just looking at the truck again and it looks like there are at least two holes in the middle for the 18mm screws. I think that should be enough to hold them down. Do you think I need to go to the dealer for the screws?
Yeah, first of all I doubt they are going to help you retrofit them in your truck and secondly you must have more money than me just to go to the dealer and get some bolts and nuts!! LOL
But as HemiLonestar said, go to a hardware store or Lowes/Home Depot.
Look underneath -- the holes may be there anyway. I can't imagine Dodge making two different floor pans. Cheaper to make them all the same, and sell the fold-flat.
Just for future reference, there are two holes in the middle where the split seat would bolt to. The carpet has a little cut out where the holes are. I got the two bolts from Dodge, part number 6507241AA, 2.70 each.
