False floor in trunk

[steven]

Has anyone a good picture showing the mounts of the false floor also how do the rear druzit units mount my Tiger has nothing left of false floor setup

Here's a start

Steve-Trunk arrangement shows the RH side druzit mount. Should have the holes drilled for it in the rear corners. Upper RH shows the bracket next to the battery. Had the same issue when restoring mine, was missing everything in the trunk and had fiberglass racing buckets. learned a lot.-Al

Dzus

Is the proper spelling. Can find the parts pin and clips on line with that, but not the holder for the fittings. Not sure if they are back in stock at S.S.

Rany W sells accurate repro dzus fastener brackets. I bought some about 6 years ago, very nive quality. Arrived in red oxide primer.

Iirc the brackets were painted black by the factory.

The actual dzus fasteners are available from racing and aircraft suppliers.

The L shaped metal sections that mount to the boot boards are anot supplied, but easily made. Cant recall if Rick offered the metal hooks that attach the false floor to the 2 footman loops on the rear bulkhead...but he does offer a full repro rear false floor.. So probably in the catalogue.

Thanks Michael I have the dzus ends from the old floor however they have the pressed alloy part that I had to destroy the old floor to get. If I can reuse them I need the other end to fit to the rear of the frame is it a single hole or does it need a center wire to catch to ? I have the 2 brackets from the old floor to attach to the footman loops
