Thanks for the response Old Chevy Guy.

I went and looked at it again and sure enough the lip on the outer rocker that makes that ridge is off by about an 1/8 inch in various places - that is the way it was stamped. It looks like I tried cutting it with my cutting wheel, uneven and wavy -lol.

Darn ROC body parts. I ordered a new door so I'll make sure that fits and then start the welding party.

I have been paranoid about measuring since I am replacing so much and this is my first project like this.
