Is the inner panel welded to the frame?
It's mostly rocker panel areas. Took some pics of the rust on passenger side, as I'm starting to think this might be a bigger problem than I can chew. about 30% is rusted away. Needs a full replacement I think.
*pics all passenger side.
view from inside looking out nearest back tire.
front of vehicle, nearest back of door. you can see the outer rocker panel, then inner.
nearest dog leg. See where the inner panel ends?
Is this a lost cause? Started out didn't realize the rust had really taken over.
I think I need to start pretending the whole side has been wrecked because it isn't very salvageable. There is 2 Upull salvage yards in the area that have explorers.

what it looked like before I started on it. See how the worst of it was hid? Back behind the trim it was rusting away...
