Yep, there's a box section there, sticks down about 2 - 2 1/2 cm at the front. Thats why there are holes in each footwell with one of the subframe mounting bolts down them.

Yeah, the moke floors are an inch "higher" than the mini floor pans,,, so there is a step "up" from the rear mounting point of the front frame, & yeah it`s sort of a box section where it mounts

If you want to look at my 67 moke at the set up your welcome. One side is still original and the other I have repaired/replaced. Both had some rust between the metal overlap
