Cheap cab corner replacement on a 1988 through 1998 Chevrolet or GMC regular cab pickup. OBS GMT400

I installed a $15 cab corner using some basic hand tools along with a welder and some grinding wheels. Seam sealed and aerosol painted. It took me about 3 hours total over a 2 day span.

    Great video man! One thing I can suggest to interested people is wear a mask or respirator though. When I did the drivers floor and rocker / cab corner on my 88 I actually got a lung infection about halfway through from the constant grinding and welding. Just my 2 cents. Keep up the good work everyone keep these great trucks going!
