87MJman Posted July 17, 2014 Share Posted July 17, 2014 I bought a rocker panel from c2c off the rock auto website and i just cut the old bad one off and i measured up the new one cut it to fit and i relized the profile is wrong. the body lines won't match up at all. they must have bent the metal wrong. has anyone run into this problem before and also what brand of rocker should i buy to get an exact replacement for? or what has worked for you and how did you fix it.

91Pioneer Posted July 17, 2014 Share Posted July 17, 2014 Their stuff is crappy in my opinion. I believe they bend their rocker panels so they can be fit directly overtop the stock ones, so they're a bit larger in size. p.s. Measure before you cut :doh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eagle Posted July 17, 2014 Share Posted July 17, 2014 Many people have encountered this problem, and you can find some discussions of it, either in this discussion area or the Projects discussion area. Dainternet guy is correct that they are intended to be installed over the original rocker panels ... but they don't fit even if you do that.

Strokermjcomanche Posted July 17, 2014 Share Posted July 17, 2014 When I worked at a local body shop i ended up making mine with a metal break . I didn't take any pics but I was easy and cheap to make and only cost me the price of the metal (around ) $40 for both sides. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
