I know how you feel dealing with the rust....it's a time consuming job. What are your long term plans for the truck? Just asking because as you know you don't see a lot of shorty 4x4's out here (I'm in Stockbridge) so if you're going to mud it then by all means replace the rockers with sliders, but if just the floor, rockers, and cab corners (clean OEM fenders are still around and fairly cheap) need replacing and the rest of the truck is decent I'd continue trying to fix the rust. It will keep it's value that way. Just throwing that out there....
