Default time to fix the rust!! need help!

Well It's time for this michigander to fix all the rust this poor truck has accumulated in the last 2 years......rocker panels,cab corners,bed etc. SALT SUCKS!!! Any way I was wondering if anyone has dealt with fixmyrust.com? Prices are decent and it looks like the parts are a direct fit. With a little cutting and grinding it doesn't seem like to bad of a job. I was just wondering if anyone has had a problem with this company before I give $600 for parts. Any tips for the job would be greatly appreciated also! Thanks!

No idea about that co. Did you check LMC I think their rockers are $175 and corners are $45 so that's only like $450 for parts. Just a thought

I'm in New England, so rust is a big problem. I'm getting ready to start my project 98 Lariat. I have dealt with LMC and there prices are not bad, not Ford but Chevy panels. Good luck.

As far as tips go, use a welder to weld the sheets in, also use por-15 to stop and prevent rust. I've been using it for years and it does work. Hope this helps.
