ya the gm stuff is great

 

good luck!

 

personally id weld them in, but i've heard of the panel bond working.
but keep in mind that stuff was not designed for filler panels, its for gluing 2 sheets that overlap about an inch, the filler panel only has a rough 2-3 millimeters of overlap with the door

anybody who knows how to weld should be able to weld a filler panel in without warping the door, its not rocket science... its not even 5th grade physics level


holy **** chenga...., i didnt know you were in ohio..much less LaGrange, hell i live a county north.

i know a few body guys nearby that could do it for a good price and they're good at it

 

When I did my D50 I simply cut out the handle pockets glued a flat sheet inside the door panel, I had a good inch on either side to glue in. But to each his own, I am a welder that's what I do for a living with that I prefer the glue because I am not a body man.

 

i am in wellingtonholy crap!!!

 

oh,
i was just goin to do it myself though because im pretty good with bondo and welding

 

damn.... whos been running around getting you farm towners signed up?

 

haha he is sadly my brother.. do you make fillers for any trucks?

 

haha i dont know
But i know some people that went to school for auto body that would help me put in the fillers
how much would it run for you to make fillers for me?

 

You know if you just cut the handle cup out (the part behind the door handle) you don't need a filler, a simple flat plate of steel maybe with a slight curve to match your door will fit just fine. Here is a set of pics from my D50...

Making light cuts with a cutting wheel on an angle grinder (You have to keep them light or you will build up heat) work your way around until the piece falls out





Once it is cut out cut a piece of sheet metal in the correct shape. In this case I wanted to cover my lock hole as well...



Slide your patch piece inside your door and get your glue ready, this is what I chose to use.



Apply glue, hold your patch in place for about a minute and your all done, put a thin skim of body filler in to finish.
