what kinda carpet for back floor ?

Just wondering what people are using for carpet and underpad as we know it gets wet back there sometimes.

I used stockinteriors.com that supplies ACC carpet. You can get the under carpet padding there too.

I suggest getting the leaks fixed though. Even if you cover it with carpet, the rust will continue to grow. Espicially if you add carpet to hold that moisture against the metal even longer than without carpet.

Ditto all that. And if you mean it gets wet from gear, get a Husky liner made for a late model SUV. You'll have to do some measuring to find the one that fits best but it'll save your carpet and floors.

ACC carpets are very well done, and I love the high quality "original finish" look they give the back of a Blazer or Suburban like just off the page of a GM brochure. But I don't like carpet in the cargo area as a practical matter. Carpet retains water and stores grease and dirt.

I've installed a Dee Zee DZ86974 Heavy Weight Bed Mat in both my Jimmy and my Suburban. Its not the cheapest solution, but it is the most practical. Plus, the heavy rubber has the added benefit of being an excellent and immediately noticeable sound deadener. The mat is intended for the 8' bed of a standard pickup but fits very well inside a Blazer or Suburban after trimming the front section back to fit.

Thanks for the link, that's a nice mat for the cargo area.
