Re: quarter panels

Although I haven't done it myself, short bed pick up sides have been used by many members to fix the rear quarters.

Re: quarter panels

Short beh sides will still need to be modified but their the best bet if you need to replace the entire side.

You'll need to retain the complete B pillar on your tub, then graft the short bed side to it.
The short bed side will be almost 6"s longer too.

If possible, I'd try a patch first, check out the Tri-Pro parts.
Their offering several different quarter patch option's now.
