it's not much, and it's mostly surface rust on the long, the jack post brace is worse... but the long is solid...
I'm thinking: grind/brush off all the rust and then ospho(or metal ready) and por-15 is that good enough for solid metal? or should I put a plate over it after that as an extra brace? let me know what you think... btw, when I took the rocker off, no less than a pound of DIRT fell out!! I know to clean this spot, but evidently the last guy forgot (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/smile.gif) Attached image(s) ![]() |

I am just about done with the same repair. You could probably just cut off the posts and support and weld on new ones. I got my parts from Tweeks $20 for both the post and support. Not sure about the front area of the rocker. Mine were solid so I didn't mess with them. You could probably just bend some sheet metal. I fabricated all of the patches using the side of my work bench and a BFH. They came out pretty close to the original. Not concourse quality but pretty nice.
Check out my progress thread. Maybe it will give you some ideas. Good luck!! (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/beer.gif) Jack Post Repair |
