07 Rusted Rockers

[cjbuckeye]

Do the 06 rockers fit the 07's? I cannot find 2007 rockers anywhere! driving me nuts, bought an 07 with visible rust issues with bubbles on the fenders and rockers. I negotiated down based on the body work being needed but didn't think it would be so hard to do! My local ford dealer quoted me $3,000 since there are no factory panels available and it's all customer fab.... Anyone have luck with repairing the 07 Expeditions?

I just went through this with my 07 EB. Mine turned to dust in Michigan. You CAN NOT buy just the rockers for them. The only thing you can buy outright is the full door frame. It's ridiculous. What I ended up doing was taking the last couple of inches that I had left and cut a vertical section out of them so I had the profile. I took that to a metal shop and had them bend a set for me on their brake. $75 out the door. I'm so tempted to have a few hundred sets bent up and sell them. I think guys would eat them up. For some reason nobody seems to think about doing it that way.
