anyone else ever have this problem its on the passenger side of the jeep the front leaf hanger is pushing through the floor because the pan is rotting away will pst pictures when I get out of work today

 

If the hanger is actually coming through the floor then your uniframe is rotted. The floor pans don't hold the leafs down.

 

well its not completely through the floor yet but there is some bending and the hanger sits about a half an inch above the floor line

 

Post up some pics. This doesnt sound good meaning you're in for some major metal repairs to possibly even scrapping it. I would carefully check the other side and the rear shackes as well.

 

pics from underneath will be helpful.

 

And don't drive it.

If/when it gives out, you're gonna be in for a scary ride.

As stated above, it pushing up through the floor means the unibody frame has already collapsed upward.

The floorpan wont hold for long, you need to fix it or scrap it. But don't drive it.

 

Really good recco.^^^

 

 

Major surgery. Major. If it's even fixable.

If you don't weld, time to sell it or scrap it. If you do weld, well, it still might be time to sell it or scrap it.

Since that is a major structural issue, and you sell it without disclosing the problem, you are setting yourself up to get sued into oblivion.

And if you sell it without disclosing the problem,and someone gets hurt, you could be looking at criminal charges.

 

I can weld and I though about using 3/16th plate and welding a patch from the top of the unibody channel to the rocker since that is still good its just the pan that is rotted away I also have my local body shop quote me for the repair and they can get the whole trunk pan and everything needed to get rid of all my rust problems but they want close to 2 grand to do it

 

It really should be scrapped. I know it's hard to do that to a machine that has good mechanicals. But fatal rot is something that you can't recover from with a reasonable expenditure. Remember that these are not some exotic European sports car. They are old jeeps and do not have a great economic value.

 

despite what everyone else is saying, it appears that your rust was from the inside out which is caused by wet carpet from leaky door seals. The frame appears to be pretty clean (correct me if I'm wrong). I would lift the jeep up a little to pull the weight and stress of the hanger, then Cut and weld new flooring and reinforcement. My floor looked the same way before I fixed it. With a little hard work and a welder, I think you can do it yourself. Here's mine when I redid the floors, all the vehicles weight is on it here too. This was my first project welding and I was only 16 at the time. Lol

 

yes the unibody on mine is perfect the only rust is in this spot

 

Anyone else have any ideas?

 

Blue,what about replacing the floor pans.
Move the leaf pack mounts by switching to a 63" Chevy leaf pack.
This way the mounts would be new and at a different location.
OP,is the rest of the jeep in really good condition?
