What to do about rocker openings??
Hey guys, I replaced my rockers that were rusted out with some new ones. I decided to try it myself and they work, but I knew it wasn't going to be perfect.
So towards the ends of the rockers I'm left with some gaps...which will most likely lead to a ton of mud and water getting in and rusting it all back out.
Should I seal it up with liquid nail or some foam stuff? What could my other options be?

How did you replace them? Your best bet is to fill the gaps with sheet metal and weld it up.

I replaced them but cutting out the new ones and welding in the new ones. Unfortunately the ends of the rockers came all bent up from quadratec, so I left them alone until I can figure out what to do.
