rust repair
« on: February 24, 2013, 09:47:18 PM »
 ok so i have some rust that has gone through on my rocker panel and my cab corner. so i think that i will just completely replace them both. but if i buy a new rocker panel how far does it go down, so like what i mean is does it stretch all the way down to the bottom of the cab. you can kind of see what i mean in one of the pictures. and on the cab corner i think that the regular size is fine and the corner does go around to the back of the cab in between the cab and the bed. and if i order it from here i am getting the correct year right, i do have 1983 k10 fleetside longbed so on the store here it doesnt say what the years are or does it even matter. then the last question that i have is in the last picture it is of the front corner of my door and you can see that the rust has gone through so can i patch that or do i need a whole new door over that small hole? thanks i cant get the picture to load to the site for some reason it keeps telling me that jpeg extension will not load or something like that sorry ill try it again tomorrow.

There is no year specific kit, the rocker kits fit all years.  If you look in the catalog under the 5 piece kit there is a link to a picture of all the parts included but with the optional floor.
