Does anyone have any experience repairing or replacing the rain gutters on their truck? If they are beyond repair, is there any one who sells replacenents or will they have to be fabricated?

I didn't do it, but on mine they are brazed on. Tacks every few inches, and then seam sealer over them. I have no idea how they were put on originally. Serveral owners ago, my truck had someone handy with an oxy torch. I haven't looked in the Jim Carter cat for 46 gutters. If not, they could be made up by any good sheet metal shop.

It is likely that they are spot welded, at least they are on AD's.

Mine were spot welded to the cab and appeared to be original. They were badly wrinkled, but some patience and a little effort with a pair of modified vice-grip pliers has them looking just fine.
