Damaged Rocker Panel

Was holding off on buying rock sliders until I found a good deal.

That didn't end up going too well.

Found this after wheeling today. Just curious how much others had paid to get dents in the rocker panel repaired as I've heard it's a notoriously expensive place to fix. It's not a bad dent, so I may well just leave it and move on.

 

If you don’t have a hole or rubbing and can live with it , I’d leave it , touch up any metal showing and call it a day

 

Buy the sliders and they should cover up most of the smushed area.

 

I’d bedline the rockers and throw you sliders on

 

Ouch

 

I did the same thing. It can happen so easily. Looking for sliders now mainly for rocker protection.

 

Some body mounted sliders may cover that damage and give you the protection required.

You might want to flood the inside of that rocker with with an oil wax type product.

BTDT. Rock sliders where the first thing I purchased for our truck after lessons learned on my Land Cruiser.
