I will take a look and see if my parts truck is good in that area. How do you want it cut out? 2 seperate pieces or cut completely across the top and down both sides?

I had the same problem on a older rig, may not need complete patch
The outer you can use any door panel metal or any metal for that matter that is flat pc cut a circle to fit and bend by hand to match bedside curve. Inner pc a little harder to match but can be hammered out of stock sheet metal if needed.

What ever works best for you , seperate would be cheaper but more time to cut. Just let me know before you cut.

Thanks

The reason I wanted the patch is because the outter section is bent in into to different ways when they drilled the hole or when the fuel take was removed.

Mine is solid on both sides. I can cut it however you want. The inner one will be a little tougher to get out. Tell me what you think it is worth and you pay the shipping and I will get it out for you.

I would agree with the other post before mine that taking a piece of flat stock and working it to fit might be easier and cheaper in the long run.

Just let me know how you which way you decide to go and I will be glad to help you out. Just PM the details.

Thanks,

Keith
