Carpet/Body Lift

O.K., I'm covering 2 things together here. First is the carpet. Not a big deal, I just bought some marine carpet at Lowe's and used weldwood cement to adhere it. But first I covered the pan in closed cell high density foam. It's water/fire/sound proof, and a bit pricey. Another Bradley club member had suggested it, its pretty nice.
The second thing is the 1" body lift. Another suggestion from a club member, I used composite decking material to form a 1" rail around the perimeter of the pan.
In this close-up, you can see the decking material. I cut it in rough sections to match the contour of the pan. Note the refurbished pedals.
I screwed the 1" rail into the pan, then used a rubberized sealant to help bond it all together.
This rail will boost the height of the body when reattached. More
importantly it will give the driver much needed headroom.
