any reason why pre '85 244 rocker panels wouldn't fit on an '86 245? 200

posted by  someone claiming to be jack on  Wed Sep 25 04:25 CST 2002 [RELATED]

The rocker panels on an '81 245 in the junk yard looked the same to me as my '86 245... of course I didn't have the cars side by side...?

I can get the outer skin rocker panel for pre-1985 244's for $17 from Mill Supply out of Cleveland they don't sell anything for '86 and later 240's...

so I'm wondering if the panels are really different...

I've successfully put a '81 tailgate on the '86 so I think this should work as well...

anybody got a thought... ?

is there a difference between the 244's rocker panel and the 245???

for $17 it's almost worth trying it

BTW this is to replace rusted rocker panels (most of the rust is near the wheel well, some in the center of the panel.

????
