Everyone seems to offer plush cut pile and similar carpet but the original is like an 80/20 loop which I much prefer. That or a good vinyl floor solution that doesn't have to come all the way from Australia.

Anyone know of current sources? Needing gray. (and a good drivers seat cover)

I purchased my vinyl flooring from @reevesci aka Trail Tailor. It is exactly what I wanted. Jason is great to work with. I've purchased sliders and an INTI clone roof rack from him as well. If I'm not mistaken he may have a carpet option as well...

I'm getting the first set of cloth seat covers from @FloridaFJ80 aka Land Cruiser Heaven. Frank is having them made off of a spare set of cloth covers I had that he used as a pattern. They just finished making them so I should see them relatively soon. They will be coming from Colombia so not sure exactly when.

Crap that was right. My bad.
 
I've been following the Trail Tailor carpet/vinyl thread in the 60 section. Looks like awesome stuff and he came up with the plan to sell it right after I sold my 62 (which desperately needed flooring help). :bang:

So buy it for your 80! :grinpimp:
 
80 carpet is still passable. I guess I need to haul more firewood and oily truck parts or maybe start up a husky rescue
 
I contacted @reevesci (Jason) maybe 6 weeks ago to place an order for the 80 series vinyl and he told me it was on hold until his manufacturer could source more of the material. I haven't heard anything back from him yet. I really wanted the vinyl flooring when I strip out my 93 here pretty soon.
I received some sample of plush cut pile from Stock Interiors a few days ago and I agree with the OP, it's not as nice and I imagine not as durable as the OEM carpet.
 
I'd really rather do vinyl then get me some carpet floor mats for daily use and some Weathertech's or whatever for trail use. I did the same with my FJC and it sure makes life easier.
 
All,

My supplier has been working to get a replacement vinyl material that is as good as the old material that they used to use. They bought every yard that was available, but I was way back on the list for orders.

They have since run through over 40 new materials and feel they have one that will compare to the old material.

I'll be getting a sample in the next few days to compare to my roll material (what they used for the molds on the old version) They have actually tried to buy this from me and I won't sell it back.

Once I get this , I'll be happy to tell everyone ... Yay or Nay.

Here is a pic of the OEM grade loop carpet I get from them.

I hope to be in touch soon with a review of the new vinyl.

Carpets are not on the site yet. I can get black carpet same pricing as the other colosrs.


Vinyl for the front, middle and rear -- 775.00 plus 55.00 shipping
Carpet for the front, middle and rear-- 795.00 plus 45.00 shipping


Vinyl wheel covers 175.00
Carpet wheel covers 195.00

These do not have any holes (no shifters, seat belts etc) and need to be trimmed at the door scuff plates for final fitment.

@LS1FJ40 has the only 80 set I've ever brought in. I have 40 or so sets of the 60 carpet and vinyl out to customers with great feedback on quality, color match and fit.

Off topic a tad as I will sticking with my cloth and is already in pretty good condition; But would that vinyl be suitable to make floor mats out of?

I have flat roll material that I can cut and you can make floor mats or rear cargo floor liner out of. It is a tough vinyl. I'd say its a few times harder than the typical vinyl mats you buy at the auto stores. @LS1FJ40 can chime in for a second opinion.
