rocker replacement question....

[Jonny Hotnuts]

Replacing the driver side rocker (in and out) and floor pan. I got the thing almost ready to heat up but something I cant figure out.

The inner rocker has 2 bolt holes. The issue is that the holes dont line up with the bolts in triangulation members where they are supposed to go.....by (guessing) about 5/8" (short) after getting one bolt in. The truck has never gotten in any serious wrecks. The door/body seams shown no abnormalities that would account for this, and door operation is perfect.


It would be no problem to drill another hole but I would sure like to know why there is such a significant difference.

-Both panels came from Brothers.


Any thoughts?

Tks,
