Rust Help, Which Pieces and Where To Buy
 
5 Attachment(s)
Hey ya'll, im about to tackle fixing the rust on my truck and need some advice on exactly which parts to get, and best place to get them. Rust is cab corners, rockers, and little bit of the floor. I added some pictures for a few. Its not terrible, and its the common places. Previous owners did try to do some cheap rust solution, and its better to just cut it out and put in new pieces.

So i would just like some advice on which parts to exactly get and best place to get them. Thanks in advance.:uhmk:

Looks like outer floor pans, possibly cab supports, and outer rockers. Might be more once you start cutting out the bad stuff, usually is. All reproduction sheet metal comes from one place, one factory, in China. All suppliers get the same parts, and quality is hit and miss. All repro sheet metal will need some tweaking. Shop around for the best deal, I've found Classic Truck Parts in Missouri are reasonable on prices and shipping, and have always provided great customer service when I needed it. Good luck and Start cuttin' !

Do you think it would be good to just get this piece? Covers that good part of inner rocker, part of seat hump and floor? and then get the outter rocker

Looks like you need the one you posted and maybe some of these

You might not need all of them but that is what it took on the last cab we did.
I usually get my parts from LMC or Classic Parts because they are close by.
