I don't think I posted any pics of my body work I did a year or 2 ago, so here they are. As you know they don't make the doglegs, so they had to be made. I used rivets, bondo and galvanized steel (cannot recall the gauge). I used a pre made rocker on the drivers side. Inner rockers were made with the galvanized but not pictured. I tarred/uncoated the back side up to prevent rusting issues.
Sorry for the quality, they were taken mostly with a crappy 1.3 megapixel camera phone.
Passenger side with the rust cut out:
New pieces riveted in place on passenger side:
Bondo applied:
Passenger side all finished and sprayed in bedliner:
Driver side rust:
That rust being cut out:
New metal added to the driver side:
Bondo time!:
Finished in bedliner:
Recent pic, the rear side trim piece fell off and needs reattached. Double sided tape didn't work well:
