Thank you very much for sharing this. Wish I could see the photos. Just need to see one photo to know exactly where to make the cuts.

I don't think is much different than the nnbs body style

I had the mod researched and planned well ahead of time and even a section of floor cut out of a donor truck set aside to make an overlapping cover out of that would fit the floor perfectly, and could be sealed and bolted down. Been there, done it, and would do it again.

My rig had 150k miles and knew I was on borrow time. I also planned ahead of the mod, it saved my ass on a 1500 mile road trip. Ended up changing the fuel pump on a hotel parking lot.

Thanks. Saw this video too. But it is for the previous generation body. The floor structure for the 2007-2014 is somewhat different. Just need one photo that shows the exact location to cut the access door in the 2007-2014 generation. Don't want to make the wrong cut then have to re-cut.

I did that modification 4 yrs ago and have had no problems, I dont recall the measurents but it was around a 8" square. I went to the junk yard and cut out a bigger square from another yukon and made a door out of it. Most people reuse the existing sheet metal, I didnt wanna take any changes of carbon monoxide sipping up thru the gaps. Best mod ever, I've replaced the fuel pump 2 times since.

Do you happen to have any photos showing the location of the access door that you cut?

The one I did was on a ‘91 Squarebody Suburban. These gen of trucks are new to me so I am also in the dark in the specifics.

Look at post 9, that picture does not have the new floor bottom that I added later. Compare the floor bottom to your rig. Post some pics

Let me ask you this. If you took your truck to a shop and paid to have the fuel pump replaced and they cut a hole in your floor rather than drop the tank, would you absolutely flip your s***? Do the job right or don’t do it at all.
