I completely understand..:-] Correct if the rockers are rotted, then the frame has some holes or several very thin spots. I have 3rd party sources for replacement rockers. Factory ones are 20Gauge steel. My 3rd party will make them out of 18 gauge so they are slightly thicker..
If you do pull one from the south, try to fluid film or something all over everything. So your clean ride will not rot out in a few years when you drag it north. Our environment is hard on steel.. (would be a lot better if our states did not use salt, calcium chloride etc.
If I can assist let me know..
