Re: Rocker panel ?

I bought mine from Manes Truck Parts, (not sure of the brand) but the fit was excellent.

I bought mine from gmc pauls. They fit fine and seemed to be as thick as the oem metal.

I've ordered parts from Brown's in Two Rivers Wi. Their parts were thicker than OEM and fit well.

Mine were TriPlus. Fit was perfect. Never understood why anyone would pay the exorbitant price for nos

Re: Rocker panel ?

I've had some GM rockers in days gone by that didn't fit any better than the aftermarket ones i last used. I cut on mine to get them to fit the y I wanted instead of the way they wanted. Those are two different fits. I could see where someone could take those panels and put them on strait up like they came and be reasonably happy.

Re: Rocker panel ?

Tri-Plus panels are excellent pieces, as good as OEM. No matter where you shop, just make sure that is what they sell
