There was somebody in here awhile back who had made a step by step video on multiple body work processes. I am pretty sure that rocker replacement and cab corner replacement was included in there. You might want to do a search and see if you can't find it or if somebody else in here remembers his name they can direct you in the right way. Dude all i got to say is don't rush it. I rushed mine and i didn't know what i was doing and it was just a waste of time and money.

dropdprpls10, let me first say welcome to a great place on the internet! As you probably know by now if you're into 67-72 Chevy/GMC trucks this is the place!

When faced with a rusty cab and the task to make repairs on it, many of us have wondered the same thing, what.... how.... where to start? The good news is as I'm sure you know, there are now many rust repair panels made for these trucks and some very fine venders who are members of this message board selling most everything you'll need.

While there have been rust repair panels available for some time now (and more being made) it has not been real clear just how all these pieces and parts fit/go together.
If you have the time to search, browse this forum and others and you will find as many of us have that there has been a lot of hack job repairs on these trucks and a lot of redos and a lot of time and money spent and a lot wasted by some wanting to get their rusty trucks repaired. If you have the desire, a welder, and a place to repair your truck but have not tackled such a job and feel some guidance will help, let me urge you to invest in the cab repair videos. They can help make the job a more enjoyable experience. I'm sure you will feel it will be money well spent. If I can help please let me know.

Once again, welcome and good luck with you truck!....................eb
