Re: Build Thread - 1971 4x4 Ochre Blazer

Ok, so I gave you a sneak peak the other day about the rust damage to the passenger side rocker. I have seen worse on this forum, but I am not as good at this as they are. Here are some better pics with the rocker completely off and some pics of a new rocker that I trimmed to fit hanging there. I haven't tacked it in yet as I have to fix the inner rocker. There is a space between the top of the rocker and the "hump" that needs to be filled in = New inner rockers. Looks like they are pretty cheap on LMC. I need a spot weld drill bit. I don't have a harbor freight here, but I do have a northern tool. they said they haven't ever heard of one. Lowe's and Home Depot doesn't seem to have them either. Any suggestions? I drilled this out with a regular drill bit. It took forever. Lol. Also - what rust chemical do y'all recommend? Any help would be appreciated.
