patch pannels
ive been looking at brothers.... im guessing i can use a floor pan from a 65 c10 truck for my 65 suburban? also what about the wheel arches from a fleet side? do "you" recommend using their cheap floor pan or the high dollar? im also looking to purchase rockers as well... anything i should consider while replacing rockers or floor? thanks in advance

Re: patch pannels
check out my build, I have some good pics of the floor (build is in my signature) the pass. side floor is different on a sub where there is a step to access the rear seat.
I was able to use truck rockers, they are the same... there is a steel plate that is factory that is welded to the rocker and rear quarter panel. short fleet wheel arch should work, but might require a little fab where the lip is welded to the inner panel on the sub (truck has no inner panel) if needed I think the truck pieces will work on the pass floor, it just won't be "correct"

Re: patch pannels
If you need to replace the outter floor/inner rocker, I recommend getting this piece versus the 2 seperate pieces. This makes it easier to keep things straight.
