I second this. They also make a generic version which works just as well for half the price. Far more versatile and reliable than the pneumatic unit. I weld longer handles onto mine to make it easier to punch. |
This is the one I bought years ago: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00OM4GVX0/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o05_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
Works great. Use the piss out of it with no problems. Now, back to this Double Cab! Great work so far!

Was the rocker on the third door too long, it looks like you have a seam in it?
I had the same problem.
