Carl:
Yes, the stainless floor comes out [somewhat] easily. I have a photo at http://www.i-kb.com/coaches/archive/coach2.html

After ripping out the restroom walls, measure about 2" - 3" to the outside, making a line on the floor. Take a circular saw, set the blade depth to a light 3/4-in. Make your cut and pry the stainless floor up. A saw-zall for destructive but quick removal of numerous coach parts works well.

Hope that helps,
Jerry H.

Carl,

If you're planning to take up the floor, once you remove the floorboards around the restroom floor pan it will pry out easily. It's got a flange that tucks under the wood. Can't remember if the flange is riveted down or attached with an adhesive, but either way, once the boards are out of the way it's fairly easy.

By the way, if you want any tips on removing the floor, let me know. I started out brute force, but learned a few techniques that made it go fairly easily.

Cheers,
John
