Drew 1 Report post Posted December 5, 2021 I am looking to purchase and replace the outer rockers for my 69 fastback, it seems that I can get some from a few sites; CJ, Classic industries, NPD, and Scott Drake. The reviews are not good or they don't have any. I am fine with modifying them but would like to start with the best possible piece. Also, prices range from $55 to $170. If anyone has any experience with a brand it would be very much appreciated. Thanks! Andrew Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ridge Runner 1,112 Report post Posted December 6, 2021 I have several of the very best fitting rockers left over from conversions ,seems they only put the really good fitting rockers in these kits . I have replaced a few and they fit very well . Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
det0326 179 Report post Posted December 6, 2021 I purchased one that was a terrible fit. The profile wasn't right at all. It came from Kentucky Mustang but I don't think it matters because when there is a bad lot out there it seems everybody's are bad. A friend of mine checked several places and never found a good one. If Ridge has a good one I would be sweet talking him into selling it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ridge Runner 1,112 Report post Posted December 6, 2021 These are left over from coupe to fastback conversions ,20 pair i believe . You can tell the higher quality ones from the crisp stamping ,the bad ones are rounded on all the edges . For some reason the best ones come in the conversion kits .

Drew 1 Report post Posted December 7, 2021 I was worried that I would run into issues like 69 RUSTBACK had. Ridge is helping me out tremendously and is going to be shipping a pair to Iowa. I can't wait to get them here and start working. 1 Mach1 Driver reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ridge Runner 1,112 Report post Posted December 9, 2021 I have used a couple of rockers from the conversion kits to patch in rockers that were damaged ,all the lines lined up very well . when you get one of the cheap replacements you know it right away ,the stampings have rounded corners on all the bends and nothing will line up . I like to slip a piece of rocker inside the new patch ,plug weld ,slip that into the rocker being repaired and plug weld then weld the joint ,makes a nice solid repair and the piece slid inside helps keep all the points aligned .
