Re: What's the best method to replace cab corners?

Hey man,

This is what I would do. I use butt welds whenever possible. I would only trim away the metal on the cab and keep as much of the good metal as possible. Then I would do all my trimming on the patch. That way if you mess up you could always buy another patch. I have pictures on my site if you could use them. If you are in So Cali I could supervise if you have beer.lol

I'm in So Cal but in Fontana, that maybe a too far out of the way for you. However if you still want to supervise, I can do gas, beer and food.
