I have a 02 silverado that needs outer rockers and cab corners anyone know how to do this for less than 1500 ? Or can help me do them
To have it done right, $1500 is pretty close to what your going to pay. As bad as those trucks rot out, your going to need the inner rockers replaced and coated as well. Other wise if you just through on outer panels and call it good, in about 2 years or maybe less, you will start having rust bubbles starting to want to pop back through, and you will be right back where you started. See guy's just pop on quick outer panels on those and sure enough it will start falling apart again in just a few winter seasons. I would take it to a good body shop thats known for its good work, and pay to have it fully done right. Also talk to them and see if they can work a deal out with ya on the price and have them fully undercoat the full rockers back and front,and same with the cab corners. Good luck to ya man!

My girlfriends dad does body work Mon-Fri nice guy. I'm just 20 mins from you he can do it for prolly 6-800 but don't quote me on that. I'll get ahold of him and see what he says. Single cab? Ext. cab?
My rockers are not nearly like the others u see it has holes maybe the size of a dime by the drain plugs and the paint is chipping off the cab corners the body shops near me say I dont have to replace the driver side at all but I do need to to do both on the passanger side just was wondering if 1500 for just one side being replaced seems a bit steep to me was just seing If someone on here knew how to do it. Its a extended cab 4 door short bed

Well if ya want I'm sure he could do it. He will take good care of ya. I'll beable to talk to him later on in the evening but I'm sure it wouldn't be a problem.
Scratch that ill be talking to him in about an hour or so.
I know where I work we get $1500 per side to do it right and we won't touch it if the customer want's it done "cheap". The people that want it "cheap" are the ones that come back in a year or two and complain that the rust is coming back.
If there is any sign of rusts like bubbles then it needs to be replaced because they rust from the inside out and by the time you see it on the outside it's to late.
Well let me know the prices just pm thanks alot I could even possibly bring it by sometime to be looked at
Bring it by tomorrow I pmed you my number. I'll figure out the best time for ya.
