    Does any one know if there is a taller cab corner repair panel than 12in? I need to repair a cab corner that has been put in by a complete HACK. Instead of t******* the repair panel he cut the cab to fit the patch. Then he did the worst job of welding I have ever seen. Im no expert but this is bad. Any help is welcome I would like to avoid replaceing the entire back lower panel.
    Thanks

    Hey,

    Is the area of the replacment panel with all the shape unbutchered &
    sound? Can't you just cut out the bad welds and add additional metal
    around the patch?

    I dont really want two weld seams. Also the inner cab corners needed replaced and they welded the new outer to the old rusty inner with about ten p***es of weld bead so the whole job is unsatisfactory.

    Hey S.T.P.,

    I haven't seen a complete repopped B post for an AD truck, only
    corner patch panels 6" tall.
    Perhaps a doner cab partial clip from a dry cab will be your answer
    if you don't want to fab your own parts.
