Atomic6's build, history, maintenance, whatever-you-want-to-call-it thread

January 5th, 2019
Never posted in this thread. Scored a knock-off “ARB Safari” snorkel on eBay for $98. I posted a how-to here

Dorkeled:

 
That is impressive work Atomic6. How are those rocker panels holding up? Is there still some holes for the water to drain out or is it completely sealed? I want to do this because my rocker panels are rusted.
 
Great trip write up, most of us take pics but hardly do we ever do a long detail informative write up about our 4 wd adventure. I feel like I was there with your group and enjoyed the food and scenery with you...lol The wife, dogs and I have done so many offroad adventures this last 4 months in the 3rd gen or Can am max when we need a much faster pace but I have not done 1 write up. Great job and keep it coming love to see more.
 
Do you have any idea what it would cost to have a shop do that repair? I'm looking at a 2000 that is for sale that has (worse) rust in the same spot, and I wonder if I should walk away.
I can do basic maintenance, but replacing body panels is above my skill level :)

Don’t walk away... run!

No idea what a shop would charge, but if the rust is worse than what mine was, I’d run far away from that sale. It’s not worth the cost/effort to repair it as you have no idea what’s hiding underneath until you cut it open.

Iv got a 2000 that iv gotta replace the rocker panels on. My inner rocker panels are shot and will have to be cut out. Do you think I could still use the square tubing like you did? Mine will be a work/hunting truck so I’d like to do the repair myself instead of paying a shop.
