From: "Neal Hoover" Subject: fsj: rocker panels man, it seems like i'm bouncing all over the place with questions! :) and thanks for all of the list info. so, here's another.... anyone know of a source for rocker panel replacements for J-trucks? i've tried quite a few places, but to no avail. the only thing i've found are overlays, which cover up the old panels (don't like that idea). i want something that will replace the entire rocker panel. thanks again!

It was a REPO and maybe it got sold locally.

I can't remember the name but I've bought various panels from them over the years with mixed results. Some were very good other pretty poor. I have never bought any jeep stuff from them though. I look thru my paperwork and see if I can find the company name and contact info. Bob At 07:51 AM 2/6/04 -0500, Neal Hoover wrote: >that's what i was afraid of. > >Neal A.

While everyone is on the subject of disk brake conversions... Anyone have a good resource for info on converting *front* drums to disks? I have a Wagoneer Dana 44 front axle with disks that I am planning to swap into my '69 Wagoneer but I want to keep the original bolt pattern so I can use the original wheels and hub caps (I have plain flanges and full hubcaps on the front - no locking hubs - and I want to keep it that way). I have seen a couple of pages showing conversions using GM disks and hubs, but anyone have a definitive guide? Everything I've seen seems to be aimed at Scouts and Broncos... Thanks, Chris Stevens '69 Wagoneer. Completely original and stock, never seen dirt.
