Default 34 pickup floor board/toe board/trans cover fasteners?

So mocked up my wooden floor board, metal toe or foot board and transmission cover to see how they fit together. I have no fasteners for any of these. The floor board has no holes in it so it must be a new old remake of the original or could be original.

It looks like I need to drill holes in floor board that line up with welded nuts on the cab floor and bottom edge of metal foot board. What size/length bolts?

What size/length bolts are used to fasten metal foot board to firewall?

Looks like wood screws would needed to fasten transmission cover to floor board? What size/length fasteners?

I see online there is a pedal/column rubber seal. I assume it goes on top off foot board but how is it held into place? And this rubber seal is almost $40! Wow.

Lastly, what covers the floor/foot board? Sound deadening mat/carpet/rubber mat ?

I’d appreciate some pictures for reference. Thanks.

The #2 floorboard (made of plywood) is attached to the fore and after and cross sills will 1/4 - 20 flat head countersunk machine screws with 1/4" countersunk washers, both with an S-2 (black oxide) finish as was the #1 floorboard.


The transmission cover was attached to the #2 floorboard with short #14 countersunk wood screws and 1/4' countersunk washers.


The pedal/column seal fits between the #1 steel floorboard and the stamped steel separate cover.


A taupe rubber mat covered the #1 and #2 floorboards.

Thank you DavidG. Understood. So to be clear, i am missing “ the stamped steel separate cover” ?

I thought they were originally 12-24 Screws for the 33-34 Pickup and passenger car. Ive seen a number of them modified for 1/4-20.

This the piece? Of course original would not be chrome. This one on eBay for $75.
