Make sure you have your replacement rocker panels on hand before removing
the old ones. I bought a set of rockers from one of the big three which
needed some "fitting". I picked up a second set from Sports and Classics.
They fit better, but still needed a bit of work. I ended up using the ones
from Sports and Classics. I had removed both rockers before receiving my
new ones. It was hard for me to see exactly how I needed to tweak the new
ones to fit. I took mine off with a grinder. I didn't have the Eastwood
drill, but it would have been much easier.
