    Call Elizabeth Truck Center. They may do it, or be able to refer someone.

    There's a few installation videos on YouTube if you can tackle it yourself, and save some cash.

    You really should do it yourself. Click lock thin flooring. It’s a breeze.

    I am about to do this myself this weekend... Any info how to remove the sleeper cabinets? I have not looked at them yet just thought if any of you have tackled this before might know some tips or tricks.

    It’s been a while since I took mine out. Never put them back in. I recall screws into the wall. None into the floor. Maybe some on top, but don’t think so. Easy to figure out though.one possible problem is the length of the bolt for fuel pedal, If you take it out. might want to leave it in place. Work around it. I’ve never done a hardwood floor, myself. Only gutted mine, and leveled the floor, with layers of adding. Installed new carpet. Now it needs new flooring. Lowe’s has some good moisture resistant flooring.

    I’m in Cleveland, I can bring my truck to Detroit if you can put a wood floor in my truck.

    I still haven’t done mine. Finally got 2 new seats. Now I’m looking at flooring. Lot of choices, yet not enough. Check out the Dynamat thread on here. I was joking, I can’t get my own done.
