Thanks for the feedback guys.

Hey Joe67 & Skirkpat,
Were the planks that your panels both had factory? Also, did you happen to notice how they're joined together....ie. tongue and groove or simply butted together and would there have been any sealant on the joint to avoid exhaust? Wondering 'cause planks will be easier to get locally and will probably look better.

Pritch, I only drove my panel a short time before tearing into it but it sure was loud back there. I'm hoping the rotten body mounts had something to do with the noise...guess I'll find out soon.

Richard8971, you gotta nice truck there.
