SWB Bed Patch Panels?
Does anyone sell these? I can find them for LWB but not SWB. Looking for the lower portion between the bumper and wheel well below the body line.

Re: SWB Bed Patch Panels?
If you can find a good GM panel not rusted in that area, cut 8 inches out of it and use that. The metal will be thicker and won't warp as badly.
May have to trim the very bottom after welding it.

Re: SWB Bed Patch Panels?
Ya for the price of those panels might as well buy the whole bed side and save the labor. I guess its either pony up the money or start looking for a donor.
