IF you find one, you're doing really well!  When picking a path to fix my floor, my hump had a lot of  holes and thin metal.  I wanted a hump section.

My searches found only the floor pans available OR a full floor replacement from MDJuan from their supply of "One Size Fits All" list of parts.  I choose the M38 floor and worked closely with the body shop to cut out all the M38 specific parts and keep all the CJ unique components.  I lost the indent on the passenger side that lines up along the hat channel.  I kept the CJ toe-boards, step mounting holes (and at least for the CJ-3B the tiny drain holes at the front center corners).  I also thought the bends between the floor pans/hump were a bit sharper than what was original.  The body shop helped smooth those out a bit.

Thanks Rus. I appreciate the input. I’m using all Classic Enterprises panels, but they don’t even make a full floor section, only driver and passenger floor pans. I would work with an MDJuan section or other brand, but I don’t want to buy a whole floor section just to cut out that piece (seems wasteful). I was hoping to find someone who replaced their entire floor, but perhaps their center hump wasn’t that bad and was going to get scrapped. We’ll see if anyone turns up. Here’s what I’m working with...

I have a '48 parts Jeep, and believe that section you want is intact and good metal.  Let me know if you are interested and I will check on it for you.

Update… I’m still looking for this floor section like a needle in a haystack. Just in case anyone reads this thread and assumes I got one already. Thanks

Thanks.  i ended up fabricating my own from scratch, but this would have been a whole lot easier.  Good to know.

I was thinking about fabricating my own as well but would need to buy equipment costing way more and time than the replacement part.  Took me forever to,find it
