Thanks for looking. I was hoping someone would have a longbed that they were junking that would work. Worse case scenario, I'll whack them off of Donkey !

Re: 1969 Burb build-up (Bags, 5.3/4L60E, repaint, interior....)
Rob,
I have a drivers side Goodmark swb bedside over my dad's house that I picked up to fix the wheel arch area on my burb(it was a damaged one). I will look at the taillight area, if it's OK, then you pay for shipping & it's yours... I won't be able to get up there until Saturday... Will let you know by Monday unless you want to call me on Sat night... L8R - Joe P.S. I'm getting "Progress Envy"... I want to work on mine I also have "Donkey Envy" ... I almost bought one of the "conversion" crewcabs right before my ex & I split up... It was very rough though...

Joe,
If you take pics of the wheel arch areas that you need (or give me some dimensions), I may have your patches. Rob

Re: 1969 Burb build-up (Bags, 5.3/4L60E, repaint, interior....)
Thanks LUV. I've been keeping an eye on Merlot and looks like you are making some good progress on it also.
Well I thought I had fixed all the rust until I media stripped it and found a some more on the 3rd door rocker lip and floor section where the door seal goes. I had planned to just just repair the lip and patch the floor. But the more I thought about it, the more I figured I'd better fix it now or I would be kiicking myself in the butt in a couple of years when the rust finally popped through. So, I ordered a new rocker and cut the old one off. Just my luck, I cut off a perfectly good rocker. It had a little bit of surface rust, but otherwise was in good shape. Guess it's better to be safe than sorry. On a better note, the new rocker fits great and will only require minor adjustments. The old rocker did come in handy, I'm using it for a patch in the curved floor section .

Re: 1969 Burb build-up (Bags, 5.3/4L60E, repaint, interior....)
I removed the inner rocker (it basically unbolted) so I can make the repairs to the floor area. Here is the patch panel I made out of the old rocker, :/. The new rocker fits pretty well and will require only some minor trimming. Should get it blasted and primered so I can weld it back on this weekend.

Great Project and thanks for all the progress pics. Hopefully when we get back from the Gulf, I'll get Blazer done and be able to drive it. Maybe around the same time you finish the Burb! Good to know a former EM is into trucks, I'm an ICCS on an aircraft carrier and have been into these since before the Navy. Keep up the good work and I'll keep watching from out here! Jeff.

Well I doesn't seem like much but I got the rust replaced in the drip rail on the inner rocker. It sure was a lot of welding for the few pin holes that were there (56 inches!!!!) . But now I can say it is rust free and I don't have to worry about it coming back. Just a little more trimming on the outer rocker and I should be able to weld it on.

I've got the 3rd door rocker welded in. A little bit more work on the driver's side rocker and then on to the tail lights.

Passenger side rockers are completely welded in. I also fixed the drivers side rocker so that it lines up with the door. All the rust has finally been repaired and now I get to play around with the tail lights.

Re: 1969 Burb build-up (Bags, 5.3/4L60E, repaint, interior....)
Not much progress in the last three weeks...... birthdays (wife's 40th, so I worked hard not to mess that up!), anniversary, and my son just started spring baseball. So, I got a little sidetracked but here's a small update. I got a set of buddy buckets with the CrewCab. Initially, I was just going to sell them, but then I decided they would probably be pretty cool in the suburban. I've stripped all the foam off of them and did some minor welding repair on one of the frames. Should have them blasted and painted next week and then they'll be ready for the new foam cushions I got from PICKMUP (thanks Frank) and then the new custom seat covers.

I'm running bags and a 2" lowering block in the back (with a bolt in C-notch). I had no issue with my driveshafts. Hopefully that won't change when I put the 5.3/4L60E in.

With the bags aired out, the rear sits on the bump stops (short) and the top of the differential cover just touches the wooden floor.
