rust repair. Where to begin?
 
well got the bed finished. Now its time to dive into the cab. Lost of rust in the rockers and floor pan area. Rockers need replaced some of the floor pan around the rockers. That what I can tell as of now. So my question what should be the first thing to replace? Or a good starting point?

Check the floor supports and start there. Next, floors and door posts then finally rockers.

I've found it easiest to work off of the door pillars, as they're a good reference point. You can see the steps I took on the passenger side and the steps I'm currently taking on the driverside in my build thread (see link in sig).

I'd closely inspect frame first.
