i guess to give it somewhere to bolt, you would need to put a plate in there at least, and you have probably already looked into it, but it might be food for thought

you might notice that the handbrake goes through the floor where there is a lot of extra meat ,same ribs as the seats attach too ,dont think any damage can be possible ,not many ever thinks about the extra stress the whole chassis goes through from extra ponies ...well untill there are strange panel kinks and bulges and she dont track real good....food for thought ...doc
