Rocker panel / cab corner review

Well, both can corners and rockers are done. This is not an instructional video, I’ll leave that to the experts. All this is, is my thoughts and ramblings on doing it.

More fabricating = more mistakes = more learning. Bed is going back onto the frame, one step closer to a Frankenstein'd whole truck.

Arrow of light, 2022 edition

Over the past few years, I have forged an arrow for the Arrow of Light achievement. The Arrow of Light is both a rank and an award. It is the highest achievement in Cub Scouting, and the only Cub Scout Award that can still be worn once a scout enters Boy Scouts. Another Scouting family has a CNC laser for the wooden plaques, and this arrow is mounted to the plaque, giving a good looking and han...
Simple hook. Duct tape mode (no talking)

For the people who don’t want my obnoxious commentary… a short and simple rough hook, full duct tape style..no talking. Other styles and refinements could be done, but this is a great exercise for hammer control and tool use. Enjoy!

I know a guy that has a jailbreak that is getting built up, we'll see what 10k does vs 100k...
Yes fun whip time
Ive had the privlage to drive 2 seprate v8 powered s10's Im telling you that you wont regret it if you do go for it
F@$k yes!!!! DO IT! As was previously mentioned, please make us step by step videos as well if possible
It's gonna get streached out over a long time, but I'll try. I'm no where near a mechanic (nor a body an LOL) but we'll give er hell!
Yes please make step by step process videos
I'm surprised there's not a lot. This may get ugly....
Yes and make videos of it step by step how you do it so u can have plenty of videos
Will try. Will be for entertainment mostly, or a guide on how not to do it 😂
They sell these as of Aug 20 2024. Out with the old, in with the new.
You're absolutely correct. And I would have done just that! I could not find any when I made this video. I spent hours looking. I reached out on forums and FB groups, everyone said to just get Full Size ones and cut em up.
Where did you get the tail light kit? I can't find them anymore.
I found everything on ebay. Look up "cadillac taillight buckets" and "s10 taillights filler" either on ebay or a search engine (google). I was fortunate enough to also get the taillights, trim, and wiring harness from ebay as well. But that is something you could get from a scrapyard. Make sure you order the same year range, as there's 89-93, and 94-99. I chose the 94-99.
@@GetDirty2407 thank you
Patiently waiting on the mini truck content. Shop looks good.
Thanks for watching! Yeah; the heat, work stuff, and personal stuff are inhibiting motivation and progress.
Good job man ,havent seen this in a while ,currently doing this to my 04 tahoe
Best of luck! I made a lot of mistakes, so make sure you watch the 3 videos and look for others as well!
My real job has been non stop OT. Some things are changing, my hope is to start more videos soon. Sorry for the delayed response, and I appreciate you watching!
Any more videos?😊
Where did you get the covers?
We’re did you get the caddy inserts made and the s10 light patch panels
Just off of eBay.
Don’t know why your channels recommended but glad it is I’m a fellow mini trucker been since the late 80s I just gotta get back to recording on my channel. I have 2 s10’s Nissan hardbody and 73 Datsun 620. to get back to recording, but your videos seem better than mine. Hope we see more on the mini truck.
Just an iPhone with iMovie, and I used Bandlab to make music. I want to see more minitruckin videos, I barely know what I'm doing! Hahaha
Thank you for watching!
Got a question, my truck crossmembers are also shot, been looking at them on amazon and FeEbay and the dorman ones are near 500.oo PLUS got to buy the hardware extra, there are other sellers who selling same for around 150-179 and they include the hardware. Are they the same quality and will fit or are they very cheap and tinny poor quality?
I really cannot answer that. Honestly, if there were direct replacements for my S10, I might have just got them, but this truck was junk so if it failed, would not have been a loss for me. Thank you for watching, wish I had better answers for ya!
15:42 what is that part called I can’t find it please answer
Not sure what you're referring to. The bucket? Or? Are you sure about the time?
@@GetDirty24070:59 that part
Cadillac taillight buckets?
@@GetDirty2407 yes where can I get some
Ordered mine through ebay
I remember us doing this back in the early 2000's
Yeah. Never had the garage or time or tools to do it. How bad did I do?
@@GetDirty2407 brother ive been building mini truck low riders, and hot rods since i was in high school in the early 90s 1 thing i can honestly say the only opinion that matters when it comes to your ride is yours. Screw what anybody else thinks its not there ride. People always gonna have something to say about it and how they would have done it differently. Your response to that needs to be cool then go do it to yours. I always have respect for anyone willing to build their car themselves. In 94 I started in the my old mans garage that was 20 x 20 working off jack stands. I feel in love with cars now in my back yard i have a 5000sqft shop with a 6000 and 9000 lb lift a metal working area and anything I could need still doing what i enjoy and how i want it done. Just keep building brother
Where did you order your Cadillac lights from and the housing
Just from eBay. Sorry for the late response!
Pneuma playing in the background, nice
Yessir.
Nice job!
Thanks! It did line right up, but I did need to shim the passenger side. At the end of the Caddy taillights ep3 video I put the bed back on the truck.
Hey man I just watched all 3 videos and would like to say thank you. That's a pretty involved job that I have just started on. Same exact truck with same taillights. Much love for taking the time to give your experiences while doing this. I'm no stranger to body work but this is my first time doing caddy lights. I've shaved many tailgates and welded in roll pans but this is more involved. Thanks again for sharing!
Thanks for watching! I'm not a body guy at all, so hoping that people learn from my mistakes or tell me what I did wrong, so we all learn. I truly appreciate the feedback!
@Dirty J is there any way I can maybe pick your brain with a 1 on 1 for a few minutes? Text maybe call. I swear I'm not a weirdo. Just need a little advice from someone who has first hand experience. If not I completely understand.
@@yourmom-pi6jq I'm unsure of how to exchange contact info without it being public.
Great idea in the jig to keep everything in line. I just got a set of dorman bed supports for my 1500hd Silverado. Was going to be making alot of measurements but the jig idea is great. Also was thinking about doing a couple of tack welds on the supports then test fitting then pulling back off to finish. I did my chassis with the por15. Great stuff definitely dont want to get it on your ski or you end up wearing it for a while.
Everything lined up afterwards, I just need to add some shims on the passanger side (as predicted) and the driver's side is too high, and I might end up shimming the body mount on the cab. But, the jig worked perfectly, if you have the materials to make it.
I would have made the tail lights sit flush with the tail gate i did some like that on a 69 C10 back in 2008 got the tail lights from a local junk yard for 20 bucks
Brother, All you have done to this point is what most of us go through, you haven't even got to the body work phase yet so don't sweat it. I would just square off the bottom on the panel side and do away with the deep cutback or undercut.
Thank you for the advice and encouragement! I did something close to what you're talking about. I have episode 3 done, just finishing up some things on the editing side and whatnot.

Just keep practicing! You’ll get it
Bro, you got to keep going and moving forward! there will be setbacks, there will be problems, there will be days you need to walk away and take time to think about it! YOU CAN DO THIS!
Your voice is too soft at times when you are telling and pointing at what you have done to the area you are working on. Voice over during would be helpful. Otherwise very it was very informative.
Appreciate the feedback! I should get a mic, but I'm saving up for a plasma cutter first!
Also you weld saying where you got the square tubing cant seem to get anywhere locally or ebay . Are those weld nuts for a m8 bolt to thread on or?
I was saying I couldn't find the bent channel like the OEM bed supports, so I used square tubing instead. I got the square tubing from a metal supplier real easy. The weld nuts are M8 but I have a "thoughts on" follow up video where I mentioned I should have used just flange nuts from a hardware store. They are M10 1.5 thread, pretty common metric thread.
This is that follow up video czcams.com/video/fhUaIRPNpao/video.html
This is the best video i’ve watched all the other ones are with fords and the kits that actually do sell, cant find any for chevy so i have to do the same as you great video, heat and speed on welder ? Don’t want to burn through since this well be my first time welding 😂
Thank you! I don't have exact settings, I'm running an eastwood 135amp 120VAC welder, so there's not really translatable settings. "D" volts and "5-6" wire speed. Around the recommended settings on the welder. I used .023 ER 70S-6 wire. For welding the rails to the bed, I ran the wire fast and voltage low. It took fiddling around, but it was a fine line between the wire just popping and burning through. But I was a production welder for years so I have that experience. Keep trying, you'll get it!
@@GetDirty2407 forsure thanks i’m going to be using the 125 flux core titanium from hf i’ll give those settings a try. Thanks once again
If you don't want to burn through, try putting a chunk of aluminum or brass on the other side to act as a heat sink, and it will also stop the weld from "dripping" through to the other side.
@@GetDirty2407 i will definitely do that thanks
Anyone watching this go to your local welding/fab shop find a guy named bill or terry or Jeff and hand him a drawing of the pieces you need and violá you’ve now found a place that sells these rails. I got mine for free because I said the magic words “it’s no rush” which automatically makes this a rush job because welders are much happier helping someone than making the boss money
Oh man hurry up I love this and gotta see the end result!
Planning on more time this weekend, we'll see what gets done!
Custom taillight job is always fun
Dude there is nothing like good Old Getto Garaging to build something I've been doing it for years on my 59 Apache. I don't have all the Kewl tools but I get it done and I'm real happy with the results. Love your Show Keep the Faith Brother
Thank you so much! Hoping to connect with better teachers!
I got me a 59 Apache too. I watch all the metal fan I can and I love the garage guys! Learning together!
Good idea with the plug J
Thanks! Now that the buckets are wider, it's probably unnecessary, but who knows. The plug heads aren't that thick so if I put a drop in bed liner in, they'll be "hidden" anyways.
did you think about primer paint and clear buildup once finished didn't see you gap the bucket for that... any time I installed them used a paint stick as a shim so lights would fit after painting...
I was a little worried about that, thanks for the tip!
What year caddy are those great work
1994-1999 Deville. Thanks for watching, I gotta get out there and finish this!
That will look great when its done. Great idea!
Very good. Those runs & sags on the bed rail would be a good candidate for scraping w/ razor blade, followed by primer, guide coat &block sanding. I liked how you used primer to outline the profile of the bucket. Seemed to work well
Thanks for the tips! This truck has been my body shop 101 for sure!
Great work and I subscribed
Thanks! This should be an interesting journey.
Hello Dirty J - please slow down your camera movements, slow and easy J :) with respect :) Nice work!
I'm a no dollar budget newbie with a camera phone. I'd fire my camera guy, but I don't have one :D kidding. Thanks for the input!
A complicated corner for sure ")
A cheap plasma cutter would save ya a little time
I'll mention that to my wife! Yes, that's on my list, hopefully santy claus drops one under the tree
Agreed

I'm glad I found your vid, I've got to do the ones on my 91 s10 and I figured box tubing was easier and cheaper. I'm probably gonna use steel it under the rails so Its protected and I won't burn paint off
Thank you! I had a 92 back in the day, wish I still had it. I've never heard of Steelit, but thank you for bringing that up, wish I would have known. Thanks for the input! Good luck with your project!
Did the bed fit back up good?
Unsure, had a lot of other things come up, should be going back together soon.
Thanks bro!
Thanks for the help!!!
I wish someone would just sell replacements!
