Since Im using new bedsides on my Blazer I decided to cut off some good sections that were left from my old originals. I figured I could use them for any future patchings. I also didnt feel right taking them to the scrap yard. As I took them apart I found this on the Passenger side skin. I was wondering what it was used for and if it was original to start with. My driver side skin did not have this. The outer section you see is a rubber hose 1/4 x 6" on a solid rod. Was this a support of some kind?
