Rocker !!!!
« on: March 06, 2010, 03:29:57 PM »
stated to make new rocker panels for the sami / the goal was to make them strong but also look good , so i had a local shop bend up some 3/16. I caped them with the same and welded some plates across the back. I'm not going to weld them to the body just to the frame them I will use body seam sealer

Very nice looking.  Did you cut the rockers out or were they fastened in somehow on yours?   I want to do this to mine, but I'm undecided how to go about it.

here is some dimensions

I cut the front at a 45 and the rear about 30 the caped them

I started with a 48" and they ended up being 47" total length
I'll posted some pic of how I'm mounting them next week

awesome! thank you!     I think if these are powdercoated in a color to match your rig, they can look REALLY good.  odds are if I build a set of these, that'll be what I do, is powdercoat em black or something to make the SE stand out.
