What do you use to put the holes in the rocker for the new welds? I ordered a punch set but it is backordered 4 weeks out, so I might try something else.
Well it is very expensive and hard to fine but they call it a 1/4" drill bit
Remember this is easy stuff and were people get into trouble is over thinking it. I knoiw their are other ways but I like the easy and cheap way. Best way to do it is once you have the rocker ready to weld down, mark were you want your holes then pull the rocker and drill it. Make sure to turn it over and de-bur the holes as it will not sit tight if you dont. Also by doing this you get good holes with out drilling thru the backer metal.
