Thanks for the tips. I think I have all of the tools. Do I need to brace up the rockers or will they be strong enough to support the car. I like the tip on the back lip that will save a lot of work. Did you take the lip off of the rocker or did you cut it flush and grind down even. I have read where people do it both ways, either drill out all of the spot welds or cut as close as you can along the rocker and grind down flat.
