Are cheap "slip on" rocker panels worth using?

[@clterry07]

Always fabulous workmanship ... Need to expand operations to the U.S. especially Michigan. Always love watching the vids.

Thanks, wish I could, but can’t keep up to my local area 🥴😁😁

[@MrHugawa]

great job, I am sure doing those little extras are appreciated by your customers. Thx for the video!!

[@MarkDulisse]

great stuff. Doing my own slip on rockers for first time. 2014 ram 1500 quad cab

[@MarkDulisse]

Just a quick question. On my 2014 Ram, do I overlap the top lip to have rockers hang, and spot weld on top of that lip? Or cut the slip on rocker just below the top lip, and do a butt weld (I assume harder because rocker isn’t hanging on top lip)?

Looks like code PDM....I just bought a pint of base , it list for 350 in ultra 7000.........have that same truck in my shop

[@nathanobrien6875]

Excellent video as always mate

[@billhowe6180]

When I started to do body work I used the slip on s and once and a while I still do but using the full rocker seems like alot less f ---king around and less welding and I use por 15 on the insides and oil, no come backs that way.

[@Johnnymidnight]

I agree, they definitely have their place, but not the best repair…..

[@jessejames3280]

I know every case is different, but what would you charge to do something like this with the cheaper panels and cab corners (not including the fender job you did)

[@Johnnymidnight]

Somewhere around 1500 a side

[@S1OTHE_1]

Is this just as effective? Or is it worth it to just get the full thing on. Thank you

[@Johnnymidnight]

In this case it was customers old work truck that he was moving on, but if it’s a keeper, definitely do full rockers 👍🏼

Nice !

[@arnoldcomeau8015]

Where I get my rockers i asked them whats the best thing to put on them for protection they told me salt there I laugh haha.

[@Johnnymidnight]

Then they get to sell you some more 😁

High mileage ? I did the water pump on a ram 3500 with a Cummins last year with 1500000 kms on it and still running fine.

[@Johnnymidnight]

These motors are known to last, but 400 k is still a high mileage truck

[@delbertgrubb1341]

Nice video

[@chrisdoherty6847]

You mention gluing them on, could I use liquid nails? What do you suggest?

[@Johnnymidnight]

Automotive Structural adhesive. I have a video on the channel on using panel bond 👍🏼

[@chrisdoherty6847]

@@Johnnymidnight thank you

[@Mariovlogs-pf4jl]

How much for a full rocker job

[@Johnnymidnight]

Typically in my shop rockers and cab corners done and painted are around 4500-5000 range

[@danieljones8173]

They are great !!! Only if your selling the vehicle to a SAP !!!!!!!!!

[@Johnnymidnight]

Well, do you want to buy it then?

[@JohnDoesItAll]

Nice! Subbed

[@Johnnymidnight]

Thank you 👊🏼

[@alexbernal4988]

Hard to find people with skills and they are always far away😢

[@umustwantme]

15+ minutes in, to find out the cheap slip over rockers are NOT getting used.

[@Johnnymidnight]

Yes, what you said

[@trumpstaffel1675]

Looks professional and perfect for a fraction of the price, not sure why the slip-ons get the hate when a master uses them

[@Johnnymidnight]

Thanks, there is nothing wrong with them, but I definitely consider the full rockers to be a more “permanent “ repair. The slip on style is probably easier for a beginner as well 👍🏼
