Re: Big Red Dog

Parts came in and states on the drivers side. Cut out most of the rust and started fitting the lower dog leg, extended floor panel, rocker and footwell patches. Well got the floor section fit and tacke in set the footwell patch in place before final fitment and here's where I started to notice a problem. So I fit the rocker and oh yea, PROBLEM! The Taiwan stamped extended floor panel is 3/8" short on the bottom where the rocker spot welds to it!!! So now I get to call them and let them know but I'm sure they will do nothing (lmc) so I have to add the difference that is missing by welding a strip on and making it look factory... Never had any issues before but this is a good one so if anybody orders one of these extended floor pans with the inner rocker measure the back side drop! Should be 4" not 3-5/8... Picks of the progress coming.
