56 rear cab corner patches - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Where did you guys order yours from? I am thinking about going through Brothers trucks but they have 2 options. A 15" tall $100/each pair and a short 14" $34/each pair. Are the taller stampings worth the extra money in quality and fit? They claim the taller ones are a better stamping.... Anybody know?

I bought mine at Classic Parts -> http://www.classicparts.com/Patch-Panels/products/153/
The have 'standard' for 32$ and 'Deluxe' for 85$. I called them to ask for the difference, and the Deluxe are made in the US, while the standard are coming from China ... The guy I had on the phone adviced me to go for the cheaper once, since they were better.

The Dynacorn corners for this truck fit the best, I've used other brands and all needed a lot of massaging. Dynacorn were a little more money but fit the rocker panel better. The USA made one were actually trash sorry to say.

i used part of the short cab corners
buy what you need, no sense replacing more than what is gone
same goes for any patch panel
just because the patch panel is 12''x12'', if the area to patch is 4''x6''
then replace the 4x6 area
