Ok i got an 89 s10 and i have a few problems. One of them is that when i open my door it will sag down and i have to slam it to get it to shut. I have put new bushing in it and it did not fix it. And my next problem is that my rocker panel is broke does anyone know how i would fix that? and also how do you fix holes in the floor?

 

First off welcome to the forum!!! Stop by the New member welcome area and introduce yourself!

As far as the door it sounds like you need a new door pin. Now The only way to fix a rocker panel is to buy a new one. They are pretty cheap but the problem is cutting the old one out and welding the new one in, then sanding and painting it. Same With the floor you would be better off buying a new floor pan and cutting the old one out and welding the new one in.

 

Do you know of any sites i could get the rocker panel from i have been lookin on ebay and all over with no luck. And i did do the door pin and all the bushings. I did them on both doors and it fixed the pass. door but not the drivers. I think it is cuz the rocker panel is broke it is makin the cab sit funny and pinching the door. Also i dont have a really high tech welder i just have a flux core welder is that good enough to weld the rocker panel on.

 

you can get them from lmc truck http://www.lmctruck.com/ flux core wire welder will work but you will have to clean up the weld's good .

 

i was lookin on ebay and i found some on there. here the link. they dont look like the ones i need but it says they are. And is there a thread on here showing step by step on how to do this.
