Where to buy full interior rubber mat

[kcc0521]

Does anyone know of a vendor that sells a full rubber mat for early broncos. I can find full carpet kits and just the front rubber mat.

I thought all of them sold a mat for front and rear. It actually costs more than the carpet kit.

All of them do but my favorite is Duff's

Just curious, but do the rubber mats trap condensation underneath, and therefore promote rust? The F250s I had in the 70s all had rubber floor matts, and they certainty did condensate or hold water.

The most reason that EB's floorboards rusted here in the south!

I don't know of anyone making rubber, but you can get great heavy duty vinyl flooring in, several colors, from Auto Custom Carpets.
ACC uses actual vehicle floor pans and mold the carpet/vinyl to it. The fit is perfect, and they'll let the edges run long on request. I order the firewall long enough to cover the firewall completely.

Thanks for all the great options. Now you have me wondering if I should go with carpet since it breathes.

In my opinion the broncos leak from the factory. I have line ex on mine and nothing else. More noise but no moisture trapped.

There certainly are trade-offs deciding between bed-liner and flooring. If my car was routinely exposed to water on the floor, I'd be the first to use bedliner without flooring.
On the other hand, I doubt there are many things that will reduce your cars value like bedliner in the cab.

Like I've said...
It's a trade-off.

I would only put in a full mat if it was going to stay garaged and not be driven in the rain, or if the floors were already bed lined.

Carpet padding absorbs water and it drys out but once water is under a rubber mat all it does is rust. It really makes the seams rust faster.

What about full carpet kit with full vinyl mat over it.
I know it sounds like over kill...Lol....

I was considering bed liner on the tub but completely cover it with interior, ie,,..Carpet, Quarter Panels, etc...Nobody would see the bed liner that way.
Bed liner does scare me off too...But if it couldn't be seen, haha...
I just would like to protect mine forever. I used to think bed liner was the solution until I paid more attention on here a few years back...

@bronconut73 - does sound like overkill, but earlier today I was wondering about insulation under the rubber mat so I'm in the same Camp Overkill as you are!

Value in terms of resale?
Yes, it likely will.

Value in terms of utility to the owner?
Owner's opinion, is the only one that matters then.

Whether you plan on selling it or keeping it makes that decision.

Bed liner then an OEM rubber mat in the rear appeals to me.
Hard to find, but they turn up sometimes.
Sound deadening, level floor, cushioning for stuff being hauled,....

I know my bronco was saved by the removal of the carpet and rubber early in it's life.
I have a rear rubber pad, but I am extra vigilant about removal (any drying) at the slightest hint of moisture.
My F100 has an OEM rubber covered floor. I see cracks with daylight. I'm "skert" to remove the rubber. One day, it will be necessary.

Yes. It seems like they're always wet underneath. Not good.
