Ive got a cab that was sand blasted and Im finally getting repairs made. I have a good bit of rust down the outer portion and some near the firewall.
One of my patch panels is the entire side but only wide enoigh to cover some of the rust. The other floor pan panel I have I was thinking to use to make repairs where the rust had eaten through.
So I made a cut today
But there is a good bit of rust in the brace and also an area near the firewall that needs to be cut out and replaced. Trouble is, there is that cab mount disc/washer that is in the area and I dont know if its best to leave that area in place since the rust hadnt eaten through, or cut it out and count on cleaning out the brace real good and prep for rust repair in the brace. If I cut too much I was concerned about the cab dropping down and getting out of alignment.
What should I do here? And how should I do it, and in what order?
