The outer rockers were actually installed over the edge of the body versus bolted under the body as in most
other kits. This provides a very clean and secure look. Braces were installed on the chassis to
support the weight when a person steps or sits on the rockers. 1/4" self-locking clips with
flat-heads screws secure the rockers to the body. In front of the rear wheel, the rocker was fastened to
a brace from the chassis. The rocker and fender had to be pulled out a couple of inches to ensure a natural
curve versus an inward bend of the fiberglass fender. A piece of tubular steel was used all along the
rear of the rocker to provide strength when connecting the rocker to the body (see 3rd pic below).
