Replacement rocker panels? 2nd generation
I am looking for replacement rocker panels for a '99 extended cab. I have searched and can not find them. I can only find ones for a regular cab. I also need rear cab corners. I have not yet tried the Dodge dealership. Does anyone know of a source for these panels?

How is the stuff from LMC?
How much should one expect to pay to have this repair done?
Looking at autobodyspecialt, it looks like D112 is what I need, but that is probably standard cab.
I think it's part # 7 here. I really just need the part that is on the outside.

When my rockers and cab corners rotted out I went and got an estimate from a local body shop. Holy cow they wanted a lot of money to do the work!
I just bought cab corners and rockers myself and cut them off and sandblasted the area free of rust inside and out. Then I sprayed some phosphoric acid / zinc treatment and epoxy primed it when done. I managed to save the front of the panels so I didnt need to remove the fenders. I cut the corners in such a way that I didnt need to remove the bed. Just welded them on and re-sprayed some rust neutralizer and paint in there.
The job was a royal pain, but it came out good.
I bet theres some videos on youtube that would give you a better idea on how to do it if you decide to do the job on your own.
