Tear down of the old rockers and support structure under the side floor sections. She looks pretty bad in there.

Now for the right or passenger side under the cargo door. It looks like this section is the worst.

Now for the stuff thats seen. This is all just fit in no welding other than a tack or two to help with the fit.

Its going to be difficult or next to impossible to weld in the support under cargo door in between the outer and inner rocker so after we fit everything the inner rocker will be unscrewed and the support bracket will be welded from the back side then the inner rocker followed by the floor section.
