Are these cab corners corrrect? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I ordered a pair of cab corners and the drivers side looks good. The passenger side looks like it was cut at an angle instead of coming straight down like the drivers side. (You have to look at the picture for this to make sense.) I called the company and they sent out another one but it looks the same as the last one. My question is, is the passenger side just made differently?

It is hard to tel from that pic, but normally all after market parts need just a bit of reworking to fit just right. With yor pic being a close up I can not tell if that is were yout rocker hits or not! If it is then that edge normally needs to be formed just a bit as does the rocker to have a nice small even gap.

Send it back or try a different vender. Been there done that and it is a pain in the backside.
Not really sure if one company does that on pupose or not but you end up haveing to weld in a triangle piece to fill the void. Only happened to me once and have never seen another like that again till your post.
