OK, here's what I discovered yesterday. Got to look at a very well preserved cab thru a friend of a friend type situation. Looked underneath at the rocker panels on both sides, and yes they had the offset stamped into the panel at the lock & hinge pillar locations. The offset was not real pronounced, but defiantly there. So I assume the original rocker panels used to build these trucks did include that slight offset feature. Again, the cab I looked at was an all original cab (wish I had that one). Most of the panels available today do not have that feature, but it's great to have them available vs. nothing.
Thanks for reading my post.
