I ordered Front and Rear Floorpans, Front and Rear Cab Supports and Inner and Outer Rocker Panels, for both sides. I am not sure if I am allowed to mention the name of this company, but the floor pans and the cab supports aren't even close to being replacements for the stock ones. The rocker panels seem to fit very well and I am pleased with them. My question is.....does any one have any experience with these replacement panels ?? Is there a company out there stocks better patch panels than others ?? | | | | | Joined: Sep 2003 Posts: 2,384 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Sep 2003 Posts: 2,384 | mine weren't very close either,,my advice is only cut out what is bad & replace just that,all this repro stuff is made in China by folks who have never even seen a chevy truck. Some parts are actually made for 60-72 like there were no changes. On my latest project I have an old cab I am using for patch panels, just bought rockers everything else is home fabbed. brian | | | | | Joined: Mar 2003 Posts: 181 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Mar 2003 Posts: 181 | Sounds like my experience with a company with the letters JCW in thier name. I ordered cab supports a few weeks ago and they are not right. In fact they sent me all four the same when I needed front and rear. | | | | | Joined: Mar 2003 Posts: 181 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Mar 2003 Posts: 181 | Oh ya- 24ME14U- Where in the springs do you live?

We moved here last October from Northern Minnesota. So far, so good, but we miss the trees and the privacy living on acreage provides.
64Fleet....That is what I am working on is a '64 Fleetside LWB. I had to replace the front cab support on the driver's side, and most of the floor to the gas pedal was bad. I hae some work to do on the passenger side as well and I think I'll follow your lead by using the rockers and just fab-patch the rest. | | |
