Rear wheel tub repair

So i "thought" I saw on here some one talking about a repair flange for the rear wheel tubs. My corner flanger has rotted out were it meets the bed and bolts up. I have seen new tubs priced from 65- 99 dollars .

Re: Rear wheel tub repair

I will need to fix both sides. So yeah if you have three Ill take them all !! Cut what you can out, the way you said is perfect. Just let me know what shipping will run and i'll get you some money headed your way. I don't need this stuff asap by any means, so if you have more important stuff to do get that done first just dont scrap them !!

Re: Rear wheel tub repair

Let me get this right-U need to replace both flanges on both tubs-so an inch or two of metal above the flanges will be enough?-I can send all of it like in pics if necessary ...shipping not probably $20 for all-maybe 5-7 less if cut down...let me know..sorry about the rattling ...........jim

Re: Rear wheel tub repair

An inch or two above the flange all the way around would be great.
