Re: Font pillar question

I've seen alot of people just put the patch panel in that section. If the rest of the pillar is really solid i don't see why u can't get by with just patching it

No one makes a full pillar just a patch for the bottom. Yes it would be a real pain to replace the whole pillar.I have never seen a truck that would require that. If it did I would junk it.
