Holes in repop rockers.
I know the hole in the back of the rocker is for a rubber bumper. What is the hole in the front of the rocker for? I am not talking about the large hole on the bottom but the one above the rocker behind where the door sits. My old factory rocker did not have it. Are yall just welding up?

Re: Holes in repop rockers.
The factory rockers shoud have had them also. I am not sure why they are there, but you can use it to spray rust inhibiter inside. Yhe factory plugged them, I leave the hole open for ventalation. WES

I am talking about the 1/2" hole on the right where it mates with the A pillar. |

Re: Holes in repop rockers.
Ahhhh, I see now. You are correct. That hole shouldn't be there. That just must be on the brand they purchase. Ours (Triplus) do not have them. http://www.classicheartbeat.com/cata...r%20Rocker.htm

Re: Holes in repop rockers.
You guys are right. I just went out to the shop and all 20 that I have in stock have the holes. I must not have been paying that close attention. WES
