I gotta be honest Mike...I wish I'd remembered they were out here before sending Nathan the individual pieces....it occured to me while looking through his Blazer build pics (DOH!...don't tell him)

Musclerodz · 09-12-2007, 03:17 PM

Gonna require some modification at the rear door for the Blazer, but the only way to correctly fix the rust. The bad part is how many pieces are spot welded to this part. Thank god they need fixed as well.

Mike

RicksTrucks · 09-12-2007, 03:18 PM

where exactly does this go?

meathead95 · 09-12-2007, 03:59 PM

its the inner rocker and floor edge by the door weatherstriping. this will be much nicer then having to piece the front and rear together.

Musclerodz · 09-12-2007, 04:50 PM

This is the COMPLETE outer floor and inner rocker. Way better than POS flat panel that has been sold for the inner rocker repair panel for years. I will have pics of the installation of this part in my sheetmetal repair thread in the blazer forum

Thanks for jumping in with the explanation...we're out here cleaning for the open house Saturday. You wouldn't believe how much fine black dirt can build up where it looks clean

LOL...three times in three days-

The sample is supposed to ship the 20th. After test fit the first production run should be done and then they'll ship.

panhandler62 · 09-12-2007, 09:30 PM

Sweet.. not quite ready for cab parts yet.. but I'll be there with bells on (right after I buy a welder)

**special-K** · 09-13-2007, 05:53 AM

This is how Mr. Factory made his floor pans.So a pat on the back for Mr. Partsmaker.

72GMCburban · 09-13-2007, 07:24 AM

I gotta tell ya I was pretty excited to see this part come out. After piecing a repair together, this is going to be really nice to use.

**lks dcvn** · 09-13-2007, 08:06 AM

Can we see a few shots of one other than the one posted?

I would like to see the piece from a few angles if that is possible.

Thanks.

Thealien · 09-13-2007, 08:12 AM

I also have a set of those for my Jimmy. Looks like a good quality part.

krue · 09-13-2007, 01:31 PM

Gotta remember this!

nplocoman · 09-13-2007, 03:35 PM

Some rough in pic's. One shows inner piece one shows with outer rocker on And one shows the supervisor of the job. I have not been able to work on this for a while due to shoulder surgery.

nplocoman · 09-13-2007, 03:37 PM

I might add that the fit and quality is top notch

67ChevyRedneck · 09-13-2007, 03:46 PM

Is the metal as thick as stock?

jb4short · 09-13-2007, 03:47 PM

great pictures....

can you come do this one...LOL

nplocoman · 09-13-2007, 03:53 PM

Yes. It is as thick as stock and maybe a little thicker but I did not gage it. As fare as fixing the other one I will ask the supervisor!! I can take a few more pic's when the sun is at a different angle if any one wants to see more.

RicksTrucks · 09-13-2007, 03:59 PM

I will have to go measure the holes in my floor to see if this will cover the optional pavement viewing area.

About how many inches does it cover from the edge of the rocker to the end of the new patch panel?

nplocoman · 09-13-2007, 04:05 PM

From the outter lip of the outside rocker is 3 3/4" In toward the center of the cab

jb4short · 09-13-2007, 04:32 PM

I mic'd the metal on my cab at .077" and the panel is .071"...there may be another layer of paint vapor on the cab
