helped a buddy of mine redo his cousins 84 Ram...i have some pictures of the process and figured id put them up for your enjoyment
truck specs
84 Ram Royal SE Prospector
318 4spd with granny low
4x4
145,000 miles
tear down pics
first thing we did was shaved the snaps off the bedsides/tailgate for the tonneau cover and sanded the inside of the tailgate down
and then the real surgury started lol...here is the pass. door with the bad section cut out
the rust on the drivers door wasnt as bad as we thought it was
heres the drivers door all repaired
and heres the patch in the pass. door...used panel bond which is as strong if not stronger than a weld and there is no chance of warping it
heres what the pass door looked like all finished in primer
and then i started working on a small rust spot by the tailpipe
heres the finished product
and then i cut the wheel arch out and we had a surprise waiting for us lol
heres the installed patch
unfortunatly i dont have any pics of the finished product
drivers side patch was a breeze here is the finished product
and then we started the painting process...started with the inside of the bed
and the next day we painted the rest of the truck
