Hello,
I need to change the sills on my '87 four door.
Are there and potential traps I need to look out for? I have some experience of this type of work, but if you have any special advice about things like where I need to brace the body or which areas are tough to weld that would be great.
Many thanks in advance.
Philippe

Damn this is a popular topic lately!!

Generally when the sills go, the outer floors are rough as are the lower door posts.

Make sure you get allllll the rot out...

Thanks for the pics

I don't think mine have gone that far yet, but I expect to find some horrors down there while cutting away.
The good news seems that these cars do not need any special bracing when taking the sills off.
Thanks again for the pics.
Cheers,
Philippe
