Are your cab corners gone? Did you cut the original out already? I replaced mine but did it in steps so lined the outer rocker with the cab corner and took some measurements off the front so I would know where it went in relation to the original. Tacked it in place then put the door onto make sure it looked right. I'm sure someone on here measured though.

I have a Cheyenne Super with the drivers side outer rocker off and the passengers side on. I can get a measurement in the morning if you don't get anything before that.....

OK, the side with the rocker on measures 47 1/4" - 47 1/2" & 47 3/4" starting at the back, measuring from the top edge of the drip rail to the inside lip that sits next to the outer edge of the floor & 50" - 50 1/4" & 50 1/2" from the top edge of the drip rail to the outside edge of the rocker where you would check the door gap.


The side without the outer rocker on measures 48 1/4 - 48 1/2/ - 48 3/4 starting from the back, measuring from the top edge of the drip rail to the top of the original inner rocker. Let me know if you need anything else or more clarification on this.
