Quick Question about reinforcing the sills on my sierra...
Posted: Tue Sep 16, 2008 9:30 pm
hi Guys,
I am gunna place some alloy over my sills to Get a bit of bling happening, and to add a bit of bonus added strength. I will of course be cleaning up the current condition of my sills before I rivot the alloy over the top.
Now I am just wondering how to I go about bending the alloy over the lip and under the sill?? Can I hammer the lip flat up and under the body and just drill a couple of drain holes in the alloy?? Or do I just bend the alloy under the lip?
I have circled the "lip" that I am talking about in the picture below.... *please excuse the fact that half of it is already bent up up courtesy of a small rock*
Any help from you guys is appreciated.
Thanks,
CW
