Re: Order of rust repair

Thanks jgr. After I had the media blasted done I got it in epoxy primer. I wanted to make sure it didn't flash rust on me. I already have enough rust to repair.
Like you stated, I was thinking of running one brace from the door latch to the door pillar. Then running another across from one door pillar to the other. Then work on one side at a time. So thanks for confirming that part.

Where I was stumped was do you work from the outside in or inside out. Thanks for confirming that I should work on the floor first and then the rocker and such.

As far as putting the cab on the frame I can't do that right now. After I took the truck apart I found out the frame was bent. So right now I got the cab on a homemade wooden fixture. So would you advise waiting until I have a new frame before doing the floor repair or go ahead and repair the floor while the cab is on the wooden fixture?

I'll post some pictures once I figure out how to do it.
