Hi J.
I'm glad to hear the re-do was worth the effort in getting the panel to fit better.

I bought the floor pan (and several other rust repair panels) for mine from a local auto parts store. I can't remember the price, but I wouldn't be a bit surprised if it's the same stamping too.

I will have to pay some attention to the floor / kick panel are but that will be on hold until the kick panel arrives. You can see that I have had to modify the floor panel in this area quite a bit. Chances are it's not right and will need some banging.

I left the old kick panel & lower hinge pillar in place on mine, thinking they'd be useful as a positioning guide. But looking back (and at your pics J.) I think that just made it more difficult to get the floor pan into place. I also had to replace the cab floor support. I did that while the floor pan was out, but getting the support into position with the lower hinge pillar still in place wasn't very easy.

Ray... If I had to do it again, I think I would buy the full length outer floor/ inner rocker like you are talking about. The best price I have found on this part is from "TruckandCarShop.com" part number 67-094121. 57$ Picture is the same as goodmark/LMC, but I don't know if they are the same.

Yeah, those are the ones. I seem to recall reading a post here a while back that said those style of panels had a better fitting inner rocker than the inner rocker section that's part of the front floor pan patch panels. I don't know how many different stampings are on the market though. Hopefully just the one that fits good
