That would definitely test someone’s patients . Good for you 👍

im working on the exact same truck and the same issues. frame and wheel well resto. Good works thanks for the tips!

Great job!! Very helpful just watched all 6 videos, looking forward into working on my Ram 🐏

Listen to Me ...I'm telling you this only because I've been doing this work since the 70s there is absolutely no reason why you needed to cut so high up on the quarter panel you should stay well away from that stamped curved panel and come down closer to the actual damage ...and don't be afraid to use vise grips or Clecos if you have them or is a hydraulic panel flanger that allows you the option of plug welding every one or every other one making it almost impossible to warp or overheat the patch panel the inner well you could have easily fabricated up making it near impossible for some putts to pick your work apart....

One person dislike free knowledgeable content!?!? Wtf just because it’s beyond their comprehension let alone skill level. Stick to waisting your money buying new. The channel is for restoration. Keep up the good content it’s a lifeline for beginners.

Looking good

Great video but play all of them at at least 1.75 playback speed.

I would of just replaced the metal in the arch itself instead of replacing metal in the whole fender wall as well.

I agree, he cut out a lot of good steel for no apparent reason. Then he doesn’t bother to fix the inner arch. Now there’s a giant hole for crap to collect and rust out the new panel. Doesn’t his thumbnail say “Do it right”. Very unprofessional video.

Would be a lot easier if you cut that repair panel down a bit,

Without fixing the inner wheel well it will just happen again sooner than later.

They will all rust out again guaranteed

what have i missed? you say put tape on inside of the line but then cut on the outside of the line? then you pit the flange on but how does it reach the end of the flange when you still cut on the line??

@bpbrestorations2093

Hmmm

Will it rust behind the flange? I've butt welded before, but it really easy to warp the metal. This looks like a strong repair.

As long as you use weld thru primer before welding it, and finish the back side with undercoating or a coating of your choice as long as it's not left bare. Yes butt welding is very much harder, but in same case things must be butt welded, however this is not one. As long as you burn it in good and have good welds you will have 0 issues.

It would cost us more in time and material than it takes to do it with a stamped replacement. We will certainly keep it in mind on the next one we have come in and replacement panels are not available.

In order to hear you talking, I turned the volume up. When the music came on it almost blew my ears out. Maybe you could turn down the recording volume, for the music, please.

Yes it's called por15. Eastwood has some called rust encapsulater, and have used several others. Por15 seems to be where it's at as far as longevity.

Not using glue? 3M panel bond? Saves a ton of warped sheet metal and grinding..

Probably a dumb question. But whats the reason for using a flange gun?

@bpbrestorations2093

3 жыл бұрын

When the panels are put back together after you flange it there is a tiny groove between new metal and old that is sunken in and that makes for a really nice spot to hide your welds and get it welded more solid and avoid having to "butt" weld which is generally a crappier weld.

The repair is nearly 5 years old now and still looks amazing and do work for this fella regularly. The correct way to do this is a full bed side and inner fender but not everyone has $4-$6k for that job. So we improvise, save money and our customers love us. Thanks tho

I would have refused this job unless customer had agreed to have the inner wheel well repaired . It does not make sense to cover over rust with a new panel. Also you unnecessarily cut out way to much of the original metal.
