It is a how to on how to repair the systemic rust issue that this vehicle has due to a design flaw.

this does not need to be completed by a modern body qualified repairer, so if you are good with a mig welder this could be done in a weekend with a mate and a bit of knowledge.

This repair has to be certified so ensure the vehicle has said cert plate attached if using the load bar,

IF the entire floor panel has been replaced get under the vehicle and give the area a good going over. entire floor panel replacement does not require certifying.
