My M817 dump has a few dents in the floor of the bed that hold water. At some point, the bed held a lot of water but has not rusted out completely anywhere. I want to do a repair but see no way of coming at the bottom to bring them up. There are ribs that prevent direct contact. So what are my alternatives?
I'm thinking to put metal patches over them with a solid weld. I would put a drain hole in the depression but a continuous weld would prevent water getting in. Patches would be fitted and ground reasonably flat.
Any suggestions on repair of the dump floor to eliminate water holding depressions and be durable? Plastic sheets?
