Question for the Vendors - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I'm in the process of installing new rockers on my '71 but I'm running into a problem.The rockers I bought are not the same dimensions as the originals.The exterior length of the rocker that is visible when the door is closed, is 1/8" to short. This is leaving a large gap at the cab corner.The original measures 39-1/4" the replacement measures 39-1/8". Also the lip that the door weatherstrip attaches to is aprox. .200 shorter than the original.

Are any replacement rockers being manufactured that have dimensions closer to the originals than these? Thanks.
